Neco Williams the latest Liverpool player who could miss Leicester game

Liverpool have yet another injury concern ahead of their Premier League meeting with Leicester City, with Neco Williams now a doubt for the game.

The Reds are suffering something of a crisis in terms of injuries this season, with numerous key players unavailable.

Virgil van Dijk and Joe Gomez could both miss the rest of the season, while Trent Alexander-Arnold and Mohamed Salah are also definitely out of Sunday’s visit of Leicester to Anfield.

Williams could potentially be added to that list, too, with the Liverpool Echo reporting that he missed Wales’ 3-1 win over Finland on Wednesday with a foot problem, as confirmed by caretaker manager Robert Page.

It may be that Williams’ injury is not too serious, but it will be another concern for Jurgen Klopp. With Alexander-Arnold out, it could be that the Welshman had been considered the best replacement at right-back against Leicester.

James Milner is also an option there, but still isn’t a natural in the role and could come up against speedy players such as Harvey Barnes and Jamie Vardy in Liverpool’s right channel.

It is quite remarkable how many injured players the Reds have at the moment – bias may be common in the modern game, but even Liverpool’s bigger detractors must be able to admit that they are having some rotten luck.
