The fans’ favourite returned to pre-season training this week and is amongst the substitutes for Reds’ friendly with League One side Millwall at the Checkatrade Stadium.

Former Liverpool and Sporting Lisbon midfielder Yalany Baio is one of two trialists on the bench, the other appears to be 28-year-old defender Dieumerci Vua, who has mainly played in France.
