Liverpool manager Philippe Coutinho is hopeful that he can soon return to the first team after undergoing shoulder surgery. The Brazilian centre midfielder is hopeful that impressive performances for his club will help his international prospects.
A shoulder injury left the player out of Liverpool's first team plans.
"It's annoying to get injured, especially when you are playing well, but that happens," said Coutinho.
"I now want to focus on my recovery and do everything right to be back as soon as possible to help Liverpool in the league.
"The surgery was a success and this is what matters the most. I'll be back soon."
