Gallery: Mane and Keita strike in training workout at Anfield

The Liverpool squad took part in a training routine at Anfield on Monday as preparations continued ahead of the Premier League's provisional restart date later this month.

A session consisting of short 11v11 match scenarios took place, split into several segments.

Sadio Mane and Naby Keita were both on target in a keenly contested workout in the sunshine, overseen by Jürgen Klopp and his backroom staff.

Georginio Wijnaldum was present but did not take part as a purely precautionary measure, with the club’s medical team electing to take no risks with any minor knocks.

Assistant manager Pepijn Lijnders told Liverpoolfc.com: “It was an unbelievable feeling to be back at this iconic stadium.

“It’s our home. Anfield is basically the second-strongest connection we have, after our own homes. We had a training week full of intense sessions and to finish it off with Anfield was just great.

“We wanted to give the players the feeling of playing and competing without a crowd. We are just going step by step back to our way of playing, knowing that we have to work hard in training and be really committed to our principles to reach the same level that we had.

“Today was an important step in that direction; firstly getting familiar with the process around the games and secondly giving our squad playing time and competition very close to the environment that we will have in the future.”
