Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is set for more time on the sidelines amid continued doubt over his future at Liverpool.
The midfielder has been heavily linked with a move away from Anfield this summer with the club reviewing their options. Midfield is an immensely competitive area and Oxlade-Chamberlain finds himself some way down the pecking order with new recruits being bought in.
A fresh injury blow will mean he is unable to further his case for more involvement, which is all the more frustrating given his contract expires in the summer. Oxlade-Chamberlain picked up a serious hamstring injury in the pre-season game against Crystal Palace a fortnight ago in Singapore.
