Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson Becker feels he's on his way back.

Alisson says he has taken a "massive" step forward on his road to recovery from a calf injury.

The Brazilian has been absent ever since pulling up with the problem in the first half of Liverpool's first Premier League game of the season at home to Norwich City.

“I'm on a good way, I think we are nearly there," the recently crowned Best FIFA Men's Goalkeeper told the Liverpool website.

“I can go outside to the pitch to do some goalkeeper work and I feel very well. I feel confident and I think now it's just about getting all my power, all my confidence to come back and do what I love to do."

He added: "Now I'm running, jumping on my right leg that was injured so I'm really happy for that.

“It's great. When you are a player you want to have the contact with the ball, with the guys on the pitch, the routine of training. It's what I love to do."
