Well that’s one less thing for Liverpool fans to worry about.
There was a bit of concern over the fitness of Sadio Mane after the Senegal international picked up a knock while on international duty. It was thought that Mane may have injured his knee in his country’s 2-0 win over Namibia after he was taken off an hour into the game.

Reds boss Jurgen Klopp clearly felt the stress of potentially losing the man who’s made a bright start to his Anfield career as he called Mane on Sunday afternoon for a fitness update, as Chris Bascombe of the Telegraph reports.
According to the report, Klopp was given the best possible news as Mane informed him that he is “100 per cent fit” for their upcoming clash against Premier League holders Leicester. He reported for training at Melwood on Monday and all appeared to go well.
Mane has already sat out one game this season through injury. He was forced to watch Liverpool’s 2-0 defeat away to Burnley from the sidelines after injuring his shoulder in training. Although he has only played three games for Liverpool since making the £34 million switch from Southampton during the summer, he has shone every one of them.
