Adam Lallana closes in on first-team return as Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp admits he could face Bournemouth: 'He will be ready for the squad at least'

Adam Lallana is closing in on a return to first-team action with Liverpool and could feature against Bournemouth on Sunday.

The England midfielder has endured a difficult campaign after rupturing a thigh muscle in pre-season, but he now looks set to return once more.

Lallana resumed first-team training last week and Klopp admits he could return as soon as this weekend, with the games coming thick and fast.
