Liverpool are expected to be without Conor Bradley for the rest of the season after it was confirmed the defender has suffered a “significant” knee injury.
Bradley went down in the closing stages of Thursday’s clash with Arsenal.
While Liverpool have not placed a timescale on the full-back’s return, initial reports suggest Bradley will not feature again this season.
As well as placing extra strain on Liverpool’s defence, Bradley’s absence will also hurt Northern Ireland’s chances of qualifying for the World Cup. They face Italy in a play-off in March.
Liverpool FC can confirm Conor Bradley has sustained a significant knee injury.

Liverpool confirmed on Sunday that Bradley will undergo surgery in the coming days.
Bradley has featured in 21 games for Liverpool across all competitions this season, making 13 starts.
Arsenal’s Gabriel Martinelli has received criticism for attempting to shove Bradley off the field after the youngster went down, with the Brazilian subsequently apologising for his actions.
