Liverpool players who are not playing international football are back at the AXA Training Centre to begin pre-season preparations for 2024/25.
Arn Slot is looking forward to seeing a number of senior players return to Kirkby from their international caps, but there were a few familiar faces among those on duty today.

The Dutch defender has had three loan moves over the years and just weeks ago he revealed in an explosive interview with De Telegraaf that he wants a permanent move away from Anfield (via Evening Standard).
But when he turned up for Liverpool training this morning, the 22-year-old was beaming like he was ready to tackle the pre-season schedule.
Of course, one picture alone cannot tell the whole story, but Van den Berg may be happy to rejoin the Reds after changing his tune last month and working under fellow teammate Slot.
