Liverpool handed injury boost as Naby Keita returns to training ahead of Bournemouth clash with Jurgen Klopp's side desperate to return to winning ways

Liverpool midfielder Naby Keita has returned to training ahead of a key few days in their season.

The Guinea international missed the last two matches - both defeats - with a hip injury but is now back in training.

He took a full part in Thursday's session and is in contention to return for Saturday's visit of Bournemouth as Jurgen Klopp's side bid to end a run of three defeats in four matches.

More significantly, Keita's return gives Klopp an important option in midfield as they look to overturn a 1-0 deficit at home to Atletico Madrid in the Champions League last-16, second-leg tie on Wednesday.
