Sadio Mane injury update: Liverpool star fit to face PSG after overcoming illness

Sadio Mane is available for Liverpool’s trip to face Paris Saint-Germain after overcoming an illness.

The 26-year-old was a doubt for Wednesday's Champions League meeting with the Ligue 1 champions after being taken ill on Monday.

However, he has recovered sufficiently to take part in Tuesday's training session at Melwood, and will join his teammates in travelling to the French capital this afternoon.

The Reds head to Paris knowing that a win would secure their place in the knockout stages of Europe’s premier cup competition.

Any other result would mean a victory in the final group game - against Napoli at Anfield - would be required.

Jurgen Klopp will hold a press conference at Parc des Princes on Tuesday evening to preview the fixture.

The German is expected to be joined at the top table by the fit-again Mane, who recently agreed an extension to his Liverpool contract.
