James Milner could return to the squad for Liverpool’s trip to Manchester City on Thursday night, Jürgen Klopp has confirmed.

The vice-captain has missed the Reds’ last two outings with Newcastle United and Arsenal due to a hamstring complaint, but has resumed full training at Melwood ahead of the clash at the Etihad.

Klopp told his pre-match press conference: “He was back in training with us yesterday for the first time, so we will see.”
