Jurgen Klopp provides injury update on Liverpool trio

Jurgen Klopp is hopeful Liverpool’s injuries are nothing serious, following his side’s dramatic 1-0 victory over Napoli.

The Reds were superb at Anfield on Tuesday night, deserving to win by a wider margin.

The victory secured a place in the Champions League knockout stages, but it came at a potential cost.

Joel Matip was sent for a scan on a shoulder problem, while Trent Alexander-Arnold and James Milner also appeared to be struggling with issues of their own.

Speaking in his post-match press conference, Klopp gave an update on all three players:

I’m not sure. Nobody told me anything about [Joel’s] shoulder, so hopefully that’s a good sign.

Trent got a knock on his foot, we are not sure about what exactly it is. It is painful.

Millie had cramps – I hope it was only cramp. That was it, I don’t know anything else.

The matches keep coming thick and fast for Liverpool, with a crucial Premier League clash with Manchester United on Sunday afternoon next on the agenda.

The Reds will be favourites to overcome their rivals at Anfield, but the injuries are potentially starting to mount up.
