Liverpool fans stunned by the growth of Stefan Bajcetic's calf muscles despite being out with injury

Liverpool fans can't believe the size of Stefan Bajcetic's calf muscle despite the youngster being sidelined since September.

Bajcetic had looked like a real prospect after breaking into the Liverpool first team, and made 11 appearances in the Premier League last season but is yet to make a league appearance this season due to injury.

The Spanish teenager had made two appearances this season prior to his injury troubles, featuring against Leicester in the League Cup and LASK in the Europa League.

The 19-year-old could be back involved before the end of the season, as Jurgen Klopp revealed his progress in a recent press conference.

Klopp gave an update on March 15: "Stefan is pretty much now in his pre-season to make him physically ready. So, in the moment he feels something, it's not an injury, it's intensity. He's a young lad so we just have to make sure that we don't use him before he is really ready because what happened before was that the body was not 100 percent ready for the intensity that professional football is asking for.

"He is much better, he is in a much better place now. He had a long time, unfortunately, to improve that but that's where we now have to wait a little bit. But he is in his pre-season and I think he will be part of team training as well after the international break," Klopp added.

Following the update, Bajcetic confirmed he is back on the grass, through Instagram and fans have been blown away by the incredible size of his calf muscles despite his injury.

One fan commented: "Someone never missed leg day damn!"

Another compared Bajetic to Jack Grealish: "This is bigger than Grealish’s yam legs, that's like extra ball behind his leg."

A third added: "Kloop said that Bajcetic was preparing himself physically, but he didn't know that he was going to the point of almost inventing new muscles hahahahaha."

A fourth fan commented: "This guys gonna be a beast grown taller and put on muscle he’s gonna be a proper DM."
