Virgil van Dijk and Jordan Henderson back in contention for Liverpool

Liverpool’s record signing Virgil van Dijk and captain Jordan Henderson have both returned to full training ahead of Monday’s trip to Swansea.

Van Dijk missed Sunday’s win over Manchester City, which ended the Premier League leaders’ 30-match unbeaten league run, with a tight hamstring.

However, the Holland international, a £75million (€85m) arrival from Southampton at the start the month, was back in training at Melwood on Thursday and is set to return to the starting line-up in south Wales. He tweeted afterwards: “Happy to be back out there and looking forward to monday night.”
