Liverpool's Jordon Ibe hopes to impress Brendan Rodgers in pre-season

Liverpool winger Jordon Ibe says that he hopes to impress Brendan Rodgers in pre-season in order to earn a spot in the first team.

Liverpool winger Jordon Ibe is hopeful that he can attract manager Brendan Rodgers's attention during the club's pre-season trip to Australia and Malaysia in July.

The 19-year-old is expected to sign a new five-year deal by the end of the week.

Ibe impressed during a loan spell at Championship side Derby County in the first half of the season, and he is hopeful of earning a first-team spot for the Reds in the 2015-16 campaign.

"It's really important to get into the gaffer's mind of who could be in the starting XI for the first Premier League game, and just do well and keep your fitness up," Ibe told LFCTour.com.

"I'm looking forward to it a lot. We went to Asia two years ago and it should be good to see the amazing fans. In America and Asia I've seen so many fans. I've experienced a lot being on tour with the first team, I enjoy it."

Ibe joined Liverpool in 2012 from Wycombe Wanderers.
