Liverpool have been given an early boost ahead of their Champions League opener against Napoli - after the Italian side confirmed that their leading marksman Victor Osimhen is struggling with a muscle injury.
The Reds will kick off their European campaign with a trip to Naples on Wednesday night, and with Ajax and Rangers also in Group A, Jurgen Klopp's side will have to be at their best if they are to make their aspirations of advancing to the latter stages of the competition a reality.
Liverpool are bidding to clinch a seventh European crown after coming up short against Real Madrid in last year's final - and the absence of Osimhen could make life significantly easier for Klopp's men on the opening night of the new campaign.
