Sadio Mane gives Liverpool major boost ahead of visit of Arsenal after taking part in team training following rib injury suffered on Senegal duty

Liverpool have been handed a major boost ahead of this weekend's visit of Arsenal after striker Sadio Mane took part in team training on Tuesday.

The 29-year-old was a doubt after suffering a rib injury on international duty with Senegal, and was substituted in the 28th minute of their match against Togo in African qualifying for the 2022 World Cup on Thursday.

The former Southampton forward then returned to Liverpool following X-rays to determine the extent of the damage, with Jurgen Klopp fretting on the fitness of a key forward.
