Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp offers worrying update on Conor Bradley injury
Jurgen Klopp has expressed uncertainty regarding the extent of the injury of Conor Bradley following Liverpool FC’s 1-0 defeat to Crystal Palace. The Northern Ireland international suffered a foot injury in the second half after a collision with Palace’s goal-scorer, Eberechi Eze.
Bradley was visibly distressed as he left the field, requiring assistance from Liverpool’s medical staff. Trent Alexander-Arnold replaced him, marking his return to action after seeing himself sidelined since February 10 due to his own injury issues.
Speaking in his post-match press conference, Klopp provided an update on Bradley’s condition and here is what he had to say via the ECHO:
“Conor overstretched his foot slightly.”
“Right now, is the ligament damaged or not? I don’t know. We will get that information on Monday or Tuesday. It was very painful for him.”
The uncertainty surrounding Bradley’s injury adds to Liverpool’s growing list of concerns, as they navigate a challenging period with key players including Trent only returning now from their injury issues.
Klopp’s comments highlight the need for further assessment to determine the full extent of the injury and the potential impact on Bradley’s availability.
Losing Bradley would be a setback for Liverpool, given his contributions in the right-back position this season. His absence could test the team’s depth and resilience, particularly with important fixtures on the horizon. We have to go all out, especially after the loss against the Eagles in what was a stressful game of football, for the lack of a better word.
