Welcome Back Reds! Liverpool Reunites Senior Players After Holiday
It was a busy day at the AXA as 14 senior players returned from their holidays, and it made for quite the footage as they reunited! After a long break, it was great to see the Liverpool squad back together again, with plenty of hugs and handshakes to go around.
Andy Robertson was one of the loudest in the dressing room, and Jordan Henderson got a warm welcome from the Scot when he attracted a crowd with his physique. “Wooow, what a body. It’s all that boxing, innit?” was the greeting he received.
Players who returned on Tuesday included Alisson, Kelleher, Alexander-Arnold, Robertson, Tsimikas, Konate, Van Dijk, Henderson, Mac Allister, Szoboszlai, Diaz, Gakpo, Jota, and Salah. It was the first day for Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai, and they had plenty of new faces to greet – and Klopp hugs – can’t wait to see them in action soon!
