Liverpool defender Andrea Dossena has confirmed that midfielder Alberto Aquilani is nearing full fitness and could soon play his first game in a Reds shirt.
The ex-Roma man has been sidelined since undergoing ankle surgery last May before completing his switch to the Anfield club, and Dossena is confident the 25-year-old's comeback will help turn around their fortunes.
“Alberto will be back in action in a few weeks,” Dossena said on Radio Incontro.
“He is running and he seems really motivated. I am helping him understand the English football world and I hope he will be back soon. He will be useful.”
Liverpool slipped to eighth place in the Premier League standings last weekend after suffering a 1-0 defeat by Sunderland. The Reds are now seven points adrift of leaders Manchester United.
Dossena is also on the sidelines at the moment but insisted he is ready to fight for his place in the starting XI, refuting reports he is considering a return to Italy.
“I have been out for about a month with an abductor muscle problem and I guess it’s going to be ten more days before I come back,” he explained.
“I am just asking to play regularly, particularly with the World Cup looming.
“There has never been any concrete interest from other teams, especially from Italian clubs.”
