Coutinho wants quick return

Liverpool midfielder Philippe Coutinho is eyeing a quick return to action after undergoing shoulder surgery due to an injury sustained against Swansea City.

The Brazilian midfielder has been superb for Liverpool since joining from Inter Milan back in January, but he sustained a serious shoulder injury last week and could miss up to six-weeks of action.

Despite the estimated absence, Coutinho has promised fans that he will try his best to return as soon as possible.

“It’s annoying to get injured, especially when you are playing well, but that happens,” Globo Esporte quotes Coutinho as saying.

“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.”

The midfielder was clearly missed at the weekend as The Reds fell to a home defeat to Southampton.
