Alexis Mac Allister has, seemingly, stepped up his training while on international duty with Argentina as Liverpool prepare for their next Premier League match.
Liverpool head coach Arne Slot.
Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk have left their respective national teams early - but their Liverpool teammate continues to train with his country.
Mac Allister, 25, did not feature in the team's first match of the fortnight against Venezuela, despite being named as a substitute for the 1-1 draw.
Their coach, Lionel Scaloni, acknowledged afterwards that the midfielder had been unable to train with the squad after arriving.

A groin problem forced Mac Allister off at half-time in Liverpool's last match against Crystal Palace.
However, the player's involvement in training has now increased.

"Back at home, always proud to wear this shirt!" Mac Allister captioned a short post on Instagram - showing him hard at work with his international teammates, including Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernandez.

"Preparing with everything for what's coming," the playmaker added.
He was kitted out in full training gear.
The reigning World Cup champions' next match is a qualifier against Bolivia in Buenos Aires.
Despite their draw in Venezuela - and a defeat at Colombia last month - Argentina are three points clear at the top of South America's standings midway through qualification.
Scaloni debated using the Liverpool man before their first match of this international break, and his involvement could once again come under more significant consideration for their following fixture.
