Rafa Benitez today confirmed Brazilian full-back Fabio Aurelio has resumed training at Melwood.
The 29-year-old has missed the start of the 2009-10 season with a knee injury sustained over the summer, but Benitez revealed the defender is edging nearer to a comeback.
The Reds boss said: "Aurelio was training yesterday. I was watching him and he did well.
"He is not training with the team, but he is working with the fitness coach and is very close. We will have to see if he has any other problems, but he is very close."
