Liverpool fans have taken to Twitter to react after Naby Keita was spotted at the AXA Training Centre, just days after being stretchered off.
What’s the story?
Well, somehow, the Liverpool No.8 is already back in training, despite suffering what appeared to be a serious injury at Old Trafford.
Keita was left in a heap on the ground after a strong challenge from Paul Pogba, which led to lengthy treatment and a stretcher taking him away.
It looked like the injury prone 26-year-old would be out for a while, but remarkably, he is already back in action for the Reds.

What a relief for Liverpool and Jürgen Klopp.
The German could be seen worriedly putting his hands on his head after Pogba clattered Keita, so he will be delighted that his £52.75m man is okay.
Naby Keita return is huge for Liverpool
Somehow, the 38-cap Guinea international has become a bit more durable this season, and he’s proving to be a big player for Liverpool as a result.
The delicate midfielder has looked robust during games, and isn’t letting injuries keep him out for extended periods anymore.
Whether he’s changed his training regime, or taken another measure to improve his durability, it seems to be working.
This is huge for Liverpool.
In nine appearances this season, Keita has scored three goals and provided one assist, while his display against Manchester United was arguably his best in a Liverpool shirt.
Hopefully, he can remain fit, and keep his place in Klopp’s starting XI.
For now, let’s see what the Liverpool fans on Twitter have been saying after he was spotted at the AXA Training Centre…
