Liverpool’s Lovren passed fit to return for Chelsea game

Dejan Lovren will return to the Liverpool squad for Friday’s game at Chelsea but Emre Can remains sidelined.

Lovren missed the Reds’ 4-1 win against champions Leicester at the weekend after suffering an eye injury in training.

But the defender has since returned to training and been passed fit for this week’s game at Stamford Bridge.

Can has also returned to training following an ankle injury but he is not yet fit enough to be considered for selection.

Chelsea will be without skipper John Terry, who has been ruled out after straining ligaments in his foot.
