Liverpool defender Giovanni Leoni intends to return as soon as possible after seeing his debut for the club prematurely ended by a suspected ACL tear.
The Reds paid an initial £26 million (€35 million) to beat a number of European heavyweights to Leoni’s signature this summer and he caught the eye on his first start of the campaign against Southampton on Tuesday, only to leave the pitch on a stretcher in the final 10 minutes of the match.
