Liverpool defender Joe Gomez has returned to first team training.
The defender fractured his lower left leg on December 5 and was only expected to be out for a few weeks, but the 21-year-old has suffered several set-backs.
He and Virgil van Dijk had formed a formidable duo before the England ace suffered the injury and news of his return is likely to be welcomed by all of the Anfield faithful.
Gomez has required surgery on the injury, but is now finally back with team-mates at Melwood.
Joe Gomez – What games has he missed?
Gomez has had to sit out 20 Liverpool games to date.
He was absent for the wins over Napoli, Manchester United and Arsenal, their defeats at Manchester City and Wolves and the Champions League Round of 16 triumph over Bayern Munich.

What has Jurgen Klopp said about his return?
â€Å“It is nice – Joe is not injured anymore and nearly fit.
“He will not be in the afternoon training session because he has to do something else – he has to work on his endurance, that’s how it is and how the boys always have to do it, like [Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain] had to do it when he was finally back in training.
â€Å“After a long time, I think Joe was out for 15 weeks, that is long, so he needs to now create the basis again for the rest of the season.â€
