Liverpool star Adam Lallana is back in training.

Adam Lallana has returned to training for Liverpool after another short spell on the sidelines.

Lallana has been beset by niggling injuries over the past year.

He has just one appearance under his belt this season; playing the final three minutes of a Premier League victory against Crystal Palace back on August 20.

Lallana’s return to action is good news, but it won’t be greeted with much fanfare.

Liverpool have got used to being without him and it has been a long while since he contributed positively in a meaningful way for the Reds.

If anything, his return is a week too late, from his perspective.

Lallana missed out on a chance of first team action in the Carabao Cup, with Jurgen Klopp selecting a changed team against Chelsea in midweek.

Liverpool are now out of the competition, and Lallana will find it tough to get a chance.

Staying fit will be the first task.
