Liverpool boss Rodgers says Sturridge back this week

Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers says Daniel Sturridge will make his comeback this week.

The striker is scheduled to appear in next weekend's Premier League clash against West Ham United and could even make the squad for Tuesday's Capital One Cup semi-final second leg at Chelsea.

"Daniel starts training tomorrow (Monday) with the team," said Rodgers.

"He had his final rehabilitation with the sports science team today and now it's about getting the condition with football fitness and game fitness.

"We'll see how he is for Tuesday, if he's not ready for Tuesday then he will be back for sure against West Ham next weekend."
