Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah returned to training ahead of the Europa League last-16 first leg against Sparta Prague in the Czech Republic.
The Egypt international's presence with the rest of the squad at training ahead of their flight out was more significant in the context of the week, with Premier League title rivals Manchester City due at Anfield on Sunday.
Salah has played just 46 minutes since leaving the African Cup of Nations early with a hamstring injury on 18 January.
Those came in one substitute appearance against Brentford in mid-February, after which the 31-year-old was sidelined with what manager Jurgen Klopp said was muscle fatigue.
"He is with us and has trained two days, he is full of energy, we have to see," Klopp said of a possible return in Prague.
"But it is so good that he is back. It is really good and you can see he is happy," said Klopp ahead of the last-16 first-leg tie.
"It's an unusual situation being that long out and then came back against Brentford, played an incredible game and was then out again.
"Two days in team training: in a different situation players are not in the squad in this moment but now the situation make sense.
"We want to be careful, we have to be careful but we're in the middle of a super-intense period of the season and we need everyone.
"So let's see how long we can use him and these kinds of things. Yes, it's just good news."
