Sadio Mane remains on course with his rehabilitation from injury.
The forward has been based at Melwood working with the club’s medical team for the majority of the summer after missing the end of 2016-17 following knee surgery in April.
His recovery plan is on schedule and Mane’s condition has looked good as he’s completed outdoor sessions to step up his recuperation programme.
The 25-year-old is on course to join his teammates in the main group of players for pre-season training within a time frame of 10 days after Liverpool’s preparations for the new campaign began on Wednesday.
This means, however, Mane is unlikely to figure in the Reds’ domestic friendlies with Tranmere Rovers and Wigan Athletic.
He will continue to be monitored and assessed by the club’s medical staff to ensure he returns in the best shape and ready for the remainder of the pre-season schedule.

Latest in Mane's fitness from Klopp.....
But Klopp has revealed that he is now more likely to return to training next week, by which time Liverpool will be in Hong Kong. For this reason, Mané is to stay in Liverpool and will join up with the U23s for training once he is ready. Klopp told Liverpoolfc.com:
“He is really, really good. He is close; he is closing on coming back to team training.”
“In this moment, we think it will be when we are in Asia, so then it makes no sense to take him to Asia because he needs to then do the first steps in kind of team training. We will see how we can do it; maybe the U23s will be here, so when he can start this then we can use this opportunity, but we have to wait.”
Klopp also mentioned that Mané took part in running drills with the first team on Tuesday and says he is not at all concerned about the slight delay in the winger’s return.
“On Tuesday morning he was part of the running, so he is first-team training if you want and that looked really good. I think he is getting better, but it is how it is after a long time – you need to build a little bit of muscle again in the quad and thigh, which is important.”
“There is no risk with him because he is a naturally fit boy and in the moment when he can start to be a real part of the sessions, he will then immediately be fit again. We have not all the time in the world, but we have time and we will use it.”
