Hungary, Scotland and Czechia all failed to progress beyond the group stage, with the Liverpool trio then given three weeks off before returning to Merseyside.

Szoboszlai took in the start of his break in Italy, on the Amalfi Coast, before returning to Hungary where he attended Paks’ Europa League qualifier against Corvinul Hunedoara on Thursday.

He will now be put through initial fitness tests along with Robertson and Jaros, overseen by Liverpool’s new lead physical performance coach Ruben Peeters.
