Arne Slot gets early Liverpool injury boost as attacking wildcard returns

For a young player who missed out on the chance to represent his country at a major tournament, the pangs of disappointment will have been acute for Ben Doak in recent weeks.

The issue meant he was unable to add to the five first-team appearances made last term, the most recent of which came in a Europa League defeat to Union Saint-Gilloise in December with the Reds already assured of progress to the last 16 of the tournament at the time. As a result, the former Celtic youngster eschewed the chance to take up the full allotment of his summer holidays in favour of working with a personal trainer with the aim of returning to the AXA Training Centre as close to 100% as possible this week.

"Softly softly" is said to be the approach favoured by Liverpool when it comes to getting Doak back to full fitness and the ECHO has learned how Liverpool are "leaving no half measures" to ensuring their £500,000 capture from Celtic is given all the tools needed to return with a spring in his step this summer.
