Fiorentina striker Giuseppe Rossi is confident of a successful return from his latest round of knee surgery.
Rossi has just launched his book, 'My Way'.
"Talking about my injuries was the hardest part of writing the book," the American-born Italian international admitted.
"I'm improving day-by-day, but it takes time and patience. At home I do the things you'd normally do in the gym.
"It bothered me when people said I should stop after this latest lay-off.
"I don't know when I'll be back, but I know what I can offer.
"What I can say is that when I do come back, I'll be even stronger than before."
