Liverpool boss Klopp: Lallana ready for Huddersfield

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp says Adam Lallana is fit for selection against Huddersfield Town.

Lallana has played just three minutes for Liverpool this term due to a groin strain. The 30-year-old has impressed upon his return to training as he looks to put a hellish last 18 months behind him having only made two starts across Liverpool's Premier League and Champions League campaigns in 2017-18.

Asked if Lallana could face Huddersfield tomorrow (5.30pm), the German manager told Liverpool's official website: “Yes, of course.

“Now it's getting a bit difficult with judging how fit he is really. But training looks tremendous; he obviously enjoys playing football. It's easy to enjoy watching [him].

“We will see what we do. Nobody, not even he, knows how long he can [play] and stuff like that.

“We still want to be careful - not too careful but, of course, careful [so] that we reach the point where we don't have to think about it anymore.

“A few things happened in the past that are already over, that's good. But we cannot forget it completely or ignore it.

“But he is 100 per cent back and looks really good in training."
