Rafa Benitez says Harry Kewell is close returning to first team action after being out all season injured.
Kewell was injured at last year's world cup, and had originally planned to be back for the Barcelona game, but was still working on his recovery, and now Liverpool Boss Benitez says it could be just three weeks before we see him in a Red shirt again.
"Harry is getting closer all the time, He's had a long injury so we have to manage the situation properly, but he is almost ready.
"At the moment he can take part in parts of the training sessions, such as the warm-ups or when we work on passages of play, and he's probably ten days or so away from being able to take a full part.
"I would think he will be ready to play football for us within the next two to three weeks. If he is fit then of course we can use him. It will be good for us and for him."
If Kewell got back to fitness, he could go straight back in on the left, as Mark Gonzalez is also injured, and Rafa has been switching between Riise and Aurelio in midfield, but neither of the two have yet found their form in that position.
Kewell
Even though Kewell often appeared to be a lazy player, i think it would be good to see him playing again. he should be determined to prove himself to the fans even more, don't forget, just before he got injured the fans were singing his name out loud and proud! he should do well for us when he comes back,i hope he can prove my past doubts about him wrong!
