The Liverpool striker broke his leg during France's pre-World Cup preparations in the summer, but he's back in training and hopeful of a return to first team action soon.

"I don't feel I am cursed, it is bad luck, just destiny," the Frenchman told France Football magazine. "I should resume competition exactly like after my first injury, mid-November.

"I never doubted I would be back playing football and I never imagined giving up. I love the sport too much.

"I love challenges. I want to put l'OM as high as possible. I know I will be back to my best level.

"After my first injury I needed one month of competition to recover to my full abilities. It should be the same this time.

"I have certain a level to show, things to bring. Not necessarily considering pace and efficiency as we already have those qualities, but something eccentric.

"I have to bring some panache and try things people will not always understand."

If all goes according to plan the player will make his transfer permanent in the January transfer window.
