London - Daniel Sturridge is on the brink of a long-awaited Liverpool comeback and could feature in Saturday’s home clash with Norwich.

Manager Brendan Rodgers says the England striker has trained well all week and, assuming he gets through Saturday’s final session, he will be involved on Sunday - possibly as a substitute.

Sturridge had hip surgery in May so Liverpool will take no risks, but Rodgers is excited by the prospect of pairing him with Christian Benteke.

‘Daniel has looked really powerful,’ Rodgers said. ‘His quality is there for all to see.’
