Liverpool attacker Mohamed Salah was pictured back in training with his Reds teammates on Tuesday afternoon after returning from the Africa Cup of Nations.
The Egypt international was in tears as his nation were forced to settle for the runners-up spot in the AFCON final, as teammate Sadio Mane smashed home the winning penalty for Senegal.
Jurgen Klopp has revealed that Salah wants to feature against Leicester City in the Premier League on Thursday night, and the 29-year-old has now rejoined his teammates for training.
A video released by Liverpool on Twitter shows Salah jogging out onto the practice pitches, closely followed by Virgil van Dijk who exclaims: "He's back! He's back! The main man!" to the camera.
"He's back!" 😁
