Torres fitness update
Liverpool, 11:01, December 3, 2009 ,
Rafa Benitez has revealed Fernando Torres is progressing well from injury and he could be back in action against Blackburn on Saturday.
The striker has been struggling with his groin injury for the past month and has not played since the Champions League draw in Lyon on November 4.
He has been undergoing a tailored treatment and training programme in the past few weeks and Benitez has revealed he could make a welcome return at Ewood Park this weekend.
He said: "The feedback we had about Torres yesterday was very positive and he was feeling good. We will see how he is in the next training sessions, but it seems as though things are going well.''
Asked specifically if he will be ready to face Rovers, Benitez added: "It depends on how he feels during the week. He has to keep training with the fitness coach, but if he is feeling better maybe he can be involved in normal training sessions and afterwards we can decide.''
