Joel Matip delighted to be fully fit for Liverpool preseason

Joel Matip is delighted to be fully fit for Liverpool preseason.

After suffering an ankle ligament injury in January, Matip's 2020-21 campaign was cut short.

Now, after stepping-up his return from injury by being re-integrated into preseason training, the defender is feeling positive.

“I'm feeling good. It's nice to be back in training with the lads and to just be playing, playing [with] the ball and being active," Matip told Liverpoolfc.com at the team's base in the state of Salzburg.

“I feel really good at the moment. I have a lot of sessions ahead of me but I am feeling good and I hope to continue like this.

“Training camps are always intense but for these moments we are here and these belong to pre-season and we try to enjoy it."
