Liverpool striker getting back to fitness after knee injury
Liverpool striker Christian Benteke is returning to full fitness after his knee injury.
The Liverpool striker has been sidelined since the international duty after picking up a problem while training with Belgium.
The 25-year-old was set to be out for at least a month but HLN journalist Kristof Terreur says he could soon be back in action.
He tweeted: “Christian Benteke is close to full fitness by the way after his knee injury.”
The news could be a welcome boost to Jurgen Klopp with fears over whether Divock Origi will play again this season.
The striker, who has been in fine form in recent weeks scoring five goals in his last five games, was stretchered off against Everton last night following a bad tackle from Ramiro Funes Mori.
