Kerkez, a former AC Milan player, is particularly looking forward to the clash.

"Obviously I played there and trained a lot with the first team, know a lot of the guys," he told the Reds' official website earlier this week.

"It will be fun and will be good also for me to get more minutes and get adapted more to my teammates.

I’m looking forward to it — it’s my old team and I have good memories there.

"[Training so far] has been really good.

We are adapting to the heat still but it’s good, all the guys train hard and we are getting really ready physically.

"I think it will help definitely, when we get back to England then the lungs will open.

So, I think it will help us a lot and we will get back really ready."

Kerkez was also asked about what his short time with Liverpool has been like so far

That surprised me but it’s also what I was looking for, so I’m really happy."
