Jurgen Klopp will likely wave his Liverpool stars away for the international break with a smile full of gritted teeth. Somewhat ironically, though, his greatest fear came to haunt him before his squad had even finished their club duties.
As the Reds seemed to be easing their way to a vital 2-0 away victory against Arsenal, Trent Alexander-Arnold began to move very uncomfortably. Klopp hauled his right-back off the pitch and likely crossed his fingers while the England ace hobbled down the tunnel.
Unfortunately, the news has not been good for Klopp, or Gareth Southgate, as the defensive maestro is reportedly set for a long spell on the sidelines. "Trent is out with a hamstring, so he cannot be part of England too," Klopp said in his pre-match press conference ahead of Liverpool ’s FA Cup clash against Nottingham Forest. "Not good news, we will see how long that takes."
