Liverpool Defender Edges Closer Towards Injury Return With Appearance For Under-23s

Liverpool defender Nathaniel Clyne has further stepped up his recovery from injury after being named in Liverpool's Under-23 squad for their game on Wednesday night.

The Red's Under-23 side is set to face Middlesborough in the last 16 of the Premier League Cup and the surprise addition to the squad was the 26-year-old who continues to work towards his return.

The right back last featured for the senior team in Liverpool's pre-season friendly against Tranmere in June, and has not featured for the first team this season due to a back injury he picked up during the game.
