Origi planning to be back in action for Liverpool before season's end

Liverpool striker Divock Origi has revealed that his rehabilitation is going according to plan and he intends to make a comeback for the Reds before season's end.

The 21-year-old has been missing in action since suffering an ankle injury in Liverpool's 4-0 win over Everton in the Merseyside derby last month.

"It's progressing well. It's been ten days now so I try and improve every day and make steps, we just try and ensure I'm back as quick as possible," he told the club's official website.

"For example, yesterday and today I feel a big difference, with these injuries it can evolve every day and we put in a lot of work.

"I come into Melwood very early and I leave in the evening, so we work a lot of hours, but I think that's necessary because I want to come back as soon as possible."

"Of course, I believe in it.", he added, when asked if he believes he can play for the Reds again this season.

"My goal is to come back as soon as possible and I just want to go back on the pitch. I think it's possible, but you never know."
