Liverpool boss Klopp: Bajcetic in much better place now

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has hinted he expects Stefan Bajcetic to play again this season.

The young midfielder hasn't featured in the Premier League this term due to a hip injury.

Klopp said: "Curtis Jones. The other two, Diogo [Jota] and Trent [Alexander-Arnold], for the week after, a chance.

"Stefan Bajcetic is pretty much now in his pre-season to get him ready physically ready. The moment feels something but it's not injuries, it's intensity. He is a young lad and we don't want to use him before he's really ready.

"What happened before was his body was not 100% ready for the intensity. He is in a much better place now but we have to wait a little bit. After his 'pre-season' he will be part of team training after the international break."
