Stoke City goalkeeper Viktor Johansson says he is hungrier than ever to get back playing for the Championship club.
The 27-year-old was part of the Sweden squad at the World Cup but did not make an appearance as Graham Potter's side reached the last 32, where they were beaten by France.
Johansson missed four months of last season after dislocating his shoulder against Sheffield United in December, only returning for the final game of the campaign at Bristol City, before agreeing a new four-year deal with the Potters in May.
"This is probably one of the first years in my career that it felt like coming home - I missed it so much during the off-season and my family missed it as well," he told BBC Radio Stoke.
"That tells you a lot about the club and how we feel at home which is a nice feeling and seeing Svante (Ingelsson) here as well who I have been playing with in previous years and how he's fitting into the group."
