Curtis Jones has rejoined full training ahead of Liverpool’s clash with PSG, according to Paul Joyce and James Pearce.
The local midfielder had been taken off at half-time during the Reds’ 2-0 Premier League victory over Fulham on Saturday after appearing to suffer a groin problem.
At the time, Arne Slot expressed uncertainty about whether the England international would be fit enough to feature on Tuesday.
However, both journalists reported on X (formerly Twitter) on Monday afternoon that Jones has now returned to training, offering Liverpool a timely injury boost.
That said, it remains to be seen whether Slot and the club’s medical team will consider him ready to play any part in the Champions League encounter.
Even so, the Dutch coach is still expected to stick with the midfield trio of Ryan Gravenberch, Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai, as he did in the first leg.
Jones’ availability is still a positive development, though his involvement will likely be limited, potentially coming off the bench due to his recent injury concern.
As for Liverpool’s approach, there’s a strong case for Slot to take a more attacking stance at Anfield. Introducing Rio Ngumoha on the left wing could add much-needed pace and directness—qualities that have often been missing in that area this season.
If Liverpool repeat the cautious strategy used in Paris, it’s difficult to see them finding a way through to the semi-finals.
