Liverpool set to take Portuguese defender to Anfield to deal with injury crisis
TIAGO ILORI looks likely to return to Anfield this month after failing to break into the Aston Villa first-team.
Tiago Ilori has yet to play in the Premier League
The 22-year-old joined Villa on loan in September but has not made a single appearance for the Premier League's bottom side.
Injuries to fellow centre-backs Ciaran Clark and Micah Richards have created opportunities in the position, but Ilori himself has no been fit enough to capitalise.
And new manager Remi Garde has previously called upon the Portuguese under-21 international to prove he is capable of 90 minutes before he will be selected.
