Many Liverpool fans erupted into pandemonium after midfielder Thiago Alcantara was pictured in first-team training ahead of their Boxing Day clash against West Bromwich Albion.
The 29-year-old has been missing from Jurgen Klopp’s side since his team’s 2-2 draw against Everton back in October, after finding himself on the end of a fierce challenge from Richarlison.

Thiago, who moved to Anfield in the summer for £20m, has only played 135 minutes of football, which includes an impressive 45-minute cameo against Chelsea earlier in the campaign.
The Spaniard was a hugely anticipated signing in the summer and recently teased supporters on Instagram as he continued his fight towards full fitness.
