Liverpool’s much-loved centre-back Mamadou Sakho has been snapped back on Merseyside after being sent home by Jurgen Klopp from the squad’s pre-season Tour of America.
James Pearce of the Echo claimed that the defender’s behaviour was a reason for him being asked to leave, as was his achilles injury, which he’s now working on fixing at Melwood.
Today, Sakho was pictured in the club’s gym alongside youth player Paulo Alves.
Paulo Alves’s Instagram account is private, but here’s the snap he shared with his friends alongside the Frenchman, courtesy of @AcademyLFC.
Let’s hope he can get himself fit and put this issue behind him. It’s been a difficult few months for Mama, that’s for sure.
