Kostas Tsimikas admits his first season with Liverpool was difficult.

Signed from Olympiacos for £11.75m last summer, the Greece international managed just five minutes of Premier League action across the entirety of 2020-21.

He told Liverpoolfc.com: “I am very happy to be back with the boys, everything is very good.

"Training is really hard and really intense, but this will help us a lot for the next games. We start with friendly games and we continue working very hard together.

“The first six months were very difficult for me because I had Covid and two injuries, but the second half of the year was very good and I trained very hard in coming back from the injuries.

"Now I am more ready and in good shape to give everything for the team and help them to achieve our goals.

“I know I have to challenge the best left-back in the world. This gives me the power to do my work well every day, to continue working hard and to continue to be as good as I can."

“My target for next season is to stay healthy, first of all, and after to play more games and help my team."
