Injury update: Cavani steps up recovery

The 33-year-old picked up a knock in the Reds' 3-1 win at West Ham United at the start of December and had to be withdrawn at half-time due to the problem.

Cavani then missed subsequent games against RB Leipzig and Manchester City, although manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer did say last week that our no.7 had returned to training

“on the grass”

.

Since then, Edinson’s recovery process appears to have progressed well, with the forward pictured training ahead of our Premier League game with Sheffield United on Thursday.

It’s unclear at this stage whether he’ll be fit enough to make the matchday squad for our trip to Bramall Lane, but Ole could provide further clarification in his press conference on Wednesday afternoon.
