(Reuters) - Liverpool's Naby Keita is recovering faster than expected from a thigh injury and will be given every chance to prove his fitness ahead of next week's Champions League final against Tottenham Hotspur, manager Juergen Klopp said.

Guinea midfielder Keita sustained an adductor injury in Liverpool's 3-0 semi-final first leg defeat at Barcelona this month and was ruled out for two months, meaning he would likely miss the African Cup of Nations in June.
