Dejan Lovren has returned to full training as he looks to get his Liverpool career back on track after two months out.

The Croatia centre-back was involved in Thursday's session at Melwood as Jurgen Klopp cranked up the Reds' preparations for Sunday's home Premier League clash with Burnley.

It remains to be seen whether Lovren is deemed fit enough to make his comeback against the Clarets. A place on the bench is a possibility.

However, his presence back on the training field is a boost for the Reds ahead of a crunch week with next Wednesday's Champions League clash with Bayern Munich on the horizon.

The former Southampton defender hasn't featured for Liverpool since limping off in the early stages of the FA Cup defeat to Wolves on January 7 with a hamstring injury.

He returned to the squad and was an unused substitute against Leicester City on January 30, but then aggravated the problem in training and has been sidelined ever since.

Lovren didn't take part in Wednesday's session but was given the green light to train with his team-mates 24 hours later.

It's been a frustrating season for Lovren, who has made just 13 appearances for the Reds in all competitions.

He missed the start of the campaign with a pelvis injury which he had been carrying since the World Cup.

With fellow centre-back Joe Gomez also out injured, Klopp has had to rely heavily on Joel Matip alongside Virgil van Dijk in recent weeks.

The duo have performed well together with four successive Premier League clean sheets and that partnership looks set to continue against Burnley.

Gomez, who excelled alongside Van Dijk in the first half of the season, is making good progress after undergoing surgery on his leg last month.

Klopp hopes to have the England international fit for the visit of Tottenham on March 31.

"I think after the international break Joe should be okay,” Klopp said last week.

"If nobody gets injured before then we'll have a proper choice. Joe is doing his rehab and looks good, big steps, outside running and all these things.”
