Jordon Ibe is hoping to make a timely return to Liverpool's squad before the end of the season after stepping up his rehabilitation from a knee ligament injury.
Ibe was ruled out for six weeks after limping out of the Europa League defeat at Besiktas last month with knee ligament damage,
The 19-year-old, who has made a big impression on the first
team squad, has only this week resumed running at Melwood.
Liverpool are already without the suspended Steven Gerrard
and Martin Skrtel while Daniel Sturridge is also expected to
be out for three weeks with a torn hip flexor muscle.
Asked if he expects to play again this season, Ibe said: 'Yes,
hopefully. It was the ligament on the side of my knee and
they said I could be out for six to eight weeks, but
everything has gone smoothly from here and hopefully I can
crack on now and get back in action.
'They (Liverpool) have not said anything to me yet but if I
can just keep doing my rehab in the gym and in the
swimming pool I can get back to training quickly.'
