Liverpool youngster Joe Gomez hopes that he will be back stronger than ever next season after winning the Champions League.

Injury troubles meant Gomez was left out towards the tail end of the season.

And the young centre-back hopes that he can offer even more to the Reds next season with an injury-free campaign.

He said to reporters about this season: "I've had some tough times and it's a battle to come back from it but I've never doubted myself and I never will. I think it is not easy to come back from injuries but it is part of the game and happens for a reason.

"It is a blessing to play for this club and I just have to go again. I am more motivated than ever and getting a taste of this is something which will drive me on next season."
