Liverpool loanee Sepp van den Berg taken to hospital after suffering 'serious' injury

Liverpool defender Sepp van den Berg has been taken to hospital with a suspected ankle injury, Schalke have confirmed.

The 20-year-old is currently on a season-long loan spell with the Bundesliga club and has had a bright start to life in Germany. He's started four league matches so far following his move late in the transfer window.

However, during their 3-2 defeat to Augsburg on Sunday, he suffered a serious injury not long into the second-half. Van den Berg attempted to block a shot from Mergim Berisha but sustained a nasty ankle injury in the process.
