Torres nearing return

06 November 2008 - 15:29

Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez has revealed that Fernando Torres is almost ready to return from injury. The Spanish striker could force his way into the Reds' line up for the match with West Brom.

  • Fabrizio Romano updates on Nicolas Jackson's future at Chelsea
  • Arsenal suffer big injury blow ahead of Fulham game
  • He said: "I believe Torres will be ready for the West Brom game at the weekend.



    "It all depends on Fernando, he was not happy with his fitness so he did not play against Atletico.



    "He said he was not confident, so you cannot take any risks with a hamstring injury.



    "I will talk to the player during the rest of the week to see how he is after each training session. But I will also talk with the physio and the doctor for their view. But how Fernando feels will be the key."
