A new painful injury in the Liverpool defense ... and the coach Klopp in a great confusion
Liverpool, especially the coaching staff led by German coach Jürgen Klopp, received a shocking news yesterday after it was confirmed that the most prominent defender of the team, right-back Alexander Arnold, was injured, which will keep him out, according to English media, including the British newspaper "The Sun" until next December.
Arnold had felt ankle pain during the Premier League summit last Sunday against Man City, and then it became clear after the tests that the player was in urgent need of treatment, and that the injury was worse than what the medical system initially thought.
It is expected that Arnold will be absent from the team during the matches of Leicester and Brighton Wolves in the domestic league, while he will miss the Italian meetings of Atalanta and Ajax of the Netherlands.
The injury increased Klopp's pain due to the succession of injuries to many of the team's stars, as Dutch Virgil van Dyck is absent until the end of the season due to a tear in the cruciate ligament, then the midfielder Fabinho was injured as well, and newcomer Thiago Alcantara.
Veteran James Milner may be a substitute for Arnold, while young Nico Williams is expected to be a candidate as well, for the position of Arnold, despite the difficulty of finding a good substitute for a very important player who plays a defender and attacker.
