Sadio Mane will return for Liverpool in Premier League clash with West Ham
The Liverpool winger is set to return to the pitch after a hamstring injury left him out of the Reds last five games
SADIO MANE will return to action on Saturday when Liverpool faces West Ham.
The winger has missed the past five games after suffering a hamstring injury in the 89th minute of Senegal's World Cup qualifying win over Cape Verde.
In a press conference ahead of Saturday's clash Jurgen Klopp said: "Sadio trained yesterday for the first time with the team and looked really, really good.
"We'll see what we do with that. He could be ready for 20 or 25 minutes."
The 25-year old has only made five league appearances and nine total this season after serving a three-match ban for a red card he received against Manchester City.
Having just made his return, Liverpool were again without their ace when he picked up the injury while on international duty.

Klopp will be pleased to have the speedy winger back to full fitness with the Premier League in full swing following his blistering start to the season.
With three league goals in August Mane earned the Premier League's Player of the Month.
Liverpool sit in sixth place after 10 matches, 12 points behind leaders Manchester United.
In Mane's absence Liverpool have won, lost and drawn in their three league matches and won both Champions League games against Maribor.
After getting a feel against the Hammers, Mane will look to be fully recovered in time to face his former team Southampton in a fortnight before Liverpool face Premier League champions Chelsea at the end of the month.
