Agger nearing return to Liverpool squad
Liverpool boss Rafael Benitez will select from an unchanged squad for Sunday’s visit of Bolton to Anfield, and hopes defender Daniel Agger will be back in action soon.
The Danish youngster suffered a recurrence of a metatarsal injury earlier this month which delayed his comeback having been out since September.
But Benitez revealed today Agger is trying out a special new boot that will help him return sooner.
Benitez said: “He is back running but has had trouble with his boot and the injury. But he is now trying a special boot and I hope he will be playing again in days.”
Benitez is still without Xabi Alonso and Jermaine Pennant, both long term injuries, but will select from the squad that beat Porto in midweek.
Provisional squad: Reina, Arbeloa, Finnan, Carragher, Hyypia, Riise, Kewell, Gerrard, Mascherano, Lucas, Sissoko, Aurelio, Benayoun, Babel, Voronin, Crouch, Torres, Kuyt, Itandje.
