Liverpool manager Arne Slot confirmed the worst fears for fans this morning, stating that midfielder Wataru Endo will be sidelined for "a long time."

Endo was stretchered off in the recent win over Sunderland with a serious ankle injury.

With Alexander Isak not expected back until April and Jeremie Frimpong ruled out of this weekend's trip to Nottingham Forest, Slot’s squad is being pushed to its absolute limit as they chase a top-four finish.
