NFF Target Determined To Impress Liverpool Coach Klopp In Pre-Season

Nigeria Football Federation target Sheyi Ojo is determined to impress Liverpool manager Jürgen Klopp after he was included in the squad for pre-season training.

The Fifa U20 World Cup is a yardstick for measuring the most promising talents in the world, and The Reds decided to loan out Ojo to Fulham last season despite catching the eye in South Korea and helping England win the tournament for the first time in their history.

''It’s a really good feeling, I was delighted to be coming back and was looking forward to pre-season,'' Sheyi Ojo told Liverpool's official website.

''I’ve been working really hard during the break and I’ve been really excited about getting back to Liverpool and hopefully showing what I can do.

''I’m definitely in the best shape I’ve ever been and I feel like I’m as strong mentally as I’ve ever been, so I’m really excited about what’s to come this season.''

Ojo, an England U21 international, will be hoping to be involved when Liverpool tackle Chester FC in the first of their nine pre-season games on Saturday.
