AARON CONNOLLY LOOKS set to be available for selection when Brighton & Hove Albion visit Liverpool on Saturday.
The Republic of Ireland striker is in line to feature at Anfield after recovering from the groin injury that forced him off at half-time in Brighton’s defeat to Manchester United at Old Trafford on 10 November.
Connolly subsequently missed last weekend’s loss to Leicester City, as well as his country’s recent fixtures against New Zealand and Denmark.
Brighton manager Graham Potter confirmed this afternoon that the 19-year-old returned to training with the first-team squad this week, as Brighton prepare to try and cause an upset against the Premier League’s runaway leaders.
Connolly broke into the Seagulls’ side this season and marked his first top-flight start by scoring twice against Tottenham Hotspur.
The Galway native then earned his first senior international call-up, making his debut in last month’s Euro 2020 qualifier in Georgia.

Met Andy Lee in town earlier, he seemed a lovely guy and wilfully made conversation with me – Joe Punter who could hardly get two words out beside “you’re great and I’m proud of you and your achievements”!!
Class programme! Great guests every week. Finally sum quality on TV
You think? Too much rte ‘banter’ & not enough serious chat for me, the boys were better on the radio.
I still like them, just think it has been dumbed down too much. RTE seem to think the youff can’t concentrate for more then 5 minutes without being entertained.
I agree Shane. It reminds me too much of the really low brow English football program with Helen Chamberlain on Saturday morning.
