Jurgen Klopp revealed that Thiago Alcantara dashed to hospital in the early hours of Saturday morning before Liverpool's shock 1-0 defeat to Nottingham Forest.
Thiago was a notable absentee when the Reds arrived at the City Ground, with Klopp initially revealing that the Spanish midfielder was out with an ear infection. Post-match, however, the Liverpool manager lifted the lid on Thiago's painful predicament, which involved needing to go to hospital at 5:15am.
"Thiago got this last night, a bad ear infection. There was no chance for him to do anything. We drove him home," Klopp explained. "The decision was taken at 5:15am. He woke up in the middle of the night and had the problem.
