Liverpool midfielder Fabinho appears fully fit for this weekend.

Liverpool midfielder Fabinho was a full participant in training on Wednesday.

The £43.7 million summer signing was substituted in the win over Cardiff City at the weekend after a nasty looking clash of heads.

Manager Jurgen Klopp told the Liverpool Echo that he did not feel the incident was serious, and Fabinho’s presence in training yesterday proves as much.

The Brazilian has really come into form over the second half of the season after a slow start and played a key role for the title challengers.

Liverpool face Huddersfield Town on Friday night, in a game where they can put even more pressure on Manchester City.

The Reds are heavy favourites for the fixture and if there is any concern over Fabinho’s fitness, Liverpool should be able to get away with resting him, with a Champions League semi-final against Barcelona on the horizon.
