TORRES FIT AFTER KNOCK

Fernando Torres insists he will be fit for international duty this weekend despite a knock sustained in training.



The 23-year-old pulled out of Spain's afternoon session yesterday after a brush with David Albelda but doctors have confirmed it was nothing serious.

Torres says he will be fit for the Euro qualifiers against Iceland and Latvia: "I received a knock [to the knee] from Albelda and at first I did not really give it a second thought.

"I began to notice it more in the afternoon. The doctor told me that it might feel a bit painful but it was nothing serious."

Liverpool's record signing has 41 caps and 14 goals to his name.
