Victor Moses will return to the Chelsea squad for Saturday’s trip to Anfield.
The Nigeria international has not played for the Blues since suffering a hamstring injury in the first half of October’s defeat to Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park.
But Antonio Conte has revealed Moses is now “fine” and the wing-back is set to be included in the matchday squad at Liverpool.
“His condition is good and for sure he needs a bit of time to recover the best form,” Conte said.
“[Saturday] he is in our squad and I want to bring him on the bench and decide if there is the necessity to have him on or not.
“I am very happy as now he is fine, but needs a bit of time to have the best physical condition.”
Moses spent a year on loan with the Reds four seasons ago, scoring once in six League starts.
Meanwhile, Mohamed Salah is not treating tomorrow’s Premier League meeting with Chelsea as an opportunity to prove his former club wrong, says Jurgen Klopp.
Salah’s stellar form that has yielded nine goals and two assists from 12 league outings this season with Eden Hazard believing his former team-mate deserved more chances at Chelsea.
Klopp, meanwhile, insists Salah’s toils in west London were only to be expected of an inexperienced player trying to force his way into a settled side.
“Disappointing time? I really can’t get that, he was very young in a strong team, that happens very often,” said Klopp.
“Another player in a similar situation is Kevin De Bruyne. Nobody is to blame for that.
“Mo took the next chance. He improved a lot, especially physically, he was always a very good player.
“I don’t think he has to prove something, I don’t think he sees it like that. It’s a completely normal situation.
“If he would have played better at Chelsea, we would not have him probably so I’m happy about this situation.”
