Key Liverpool midfielder returns to training ahead of Bournemouth and Atletico Madrid

Naby Keita has returned to Liverpool training.

The Guinean midfielder has been out of action with a minor hip injury and has missed both defeats at Watford and Chelsea in the Reds' last two matches.

Jurgen Klopp is hopeful the playmaker will be fully firing and ready to start against Bournemouth at Anfield on Saturday.

Liverpool have the chance to go 25 points clear at the top of the Premier League with victory against the Cherries.

The manager will also no doubt be hoping to get his team firing ahead of the visit of Atletico Madrid in the Champions League next week.

Reds fans will be hoping that £52million Keita is the key to unlocking the Spanish giants while showing the quality the Anfield faithful know he possesses on a regular basis upon his return.
