Jordon Ibe hopes to be back for Liverpool before the end of the season.

Ibe was ruled out for six weeks after limping out of the Europa League defeat at Besiktas last month with knee ligament damage.

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."
