Liverpool prepare to face Fulham in the EFL Cup semi-final first leg game on Wednesday and ahead of the game, Pep Lijnders confirmed that Trent Alexander-Arnold has suffered an injury and will be out for “a few weeks”.
He suffered the injury during the Reds 2-0 win over Arsenal in the FA Cup 3rd round game.
“First of all, some not-that-good news, Trent hyperextended his knee during the last game,” Lijnders told Liverpoolfc.com.
“So he has a little tear in the lateral ligament of his knee and he will need time to recover. He had a scan and he will be out for a few weeks, so let’s see after that.
“He will get some rest and then hopefully he can come back to where he was. Because this guy was decisive in all the games and was the one who created constantly for us from deep and gave the team a high level of flexibility. We will really miss him.”
Liverpool’s upcoming games are as follows:
– Fulham (EFL) – 10th Jan
– Bournemouth (PL) 21 Jan
– Fulham (EFL) – 24th Jan
– Norwich/Bristol Rovers (FA Cup) – 27th Jan
Alexander-Arnold could possible return on January 31st when the Reds face Chelsea in the Premier League.
