Divock Origi has said that he is making good progress as he recovers from an ankle injury and hopes to return to Liverpool's starting XI before the end of the season.
Origi, 21, was injured during the Merseyside derby in April after scoring his fifth goal in six appearances.
But he remains hopeful he could yet return before the season's end and told the club's official website: "It's progressing well. It's been 10 days now so I try and improve every day and make steps, we just try and [ensure that] I'm back as quick as possible.
"For example, yesterday and today I feel a big difference. With these injuries it can evolve everyday and we put in a lot of work.
"I come into [Melwood] very early and I leave in the evening, so we [work] a lot of hours, but I think that's necessary because I want to come back as soon as possible.
"My goal is to come back as soon as possible and I just want to go back on the pitch. I think it's possible but you never know."
He said the reaction of the fans has helped him remain positive, adding: "When you get a lot of love you're grateful and you try to repay this.
"It makes me work so hard, it gives me energy to work hard on my rehab and give everything to be back on the pitch and help the group.
"Sometimes that's life, you have injuries, but I'm using this time to make myself stronger always and [to become] fresh mentally, and I hope I come back strong."
Speaking about his relationship with the rest of the team, Origi said: "We have a good working relationship, the group and the manager and you can see it.
"A lot of players have made steps and I'm one of them and I'm just very grateful for everything, that I'm here, and I feel I'm at the right club at the moment and I'm so happy for this.
"I think on the mental aspect [Klopp] is very strong. He knows how to deal with groups; not every group is the same, not every player is the same, but he has the experience to manage the players and boost the group.
"That's a very good thing, and with the support as well [which is] magnificent, it gives you extra force for the game and that's what's good about this club also."
