Diogo Jota is set to miss a prolonged spell after sustaining a calf injury in the 1-0 win over Man City.
Liverpool was on the way to handling Manchester City’s first defeat of the season, but in the sixth minute of stoppage time, Jota went down off the ball.
The Liverpool forward received treatment on the pitch before being stretchered off by the medical staff.
Having already missed a large portion of the season so far with a hamstring injury, it is a big blow to both Jota and Liverpool, who are now set to be without the Portuguese until after the World Cup.
In his press conference on Tuesday, Klopp confirms: “No good news with Diogo, yes he will miss the World Cup.
“Pretty serious injury in the muscle, calf muscle. Now the recovery starts, or the process starts, let me say it like this.
“That’s it pretty much; that’s the first diagnosis, which was pretty straightforward. All the rest will follow in the next few days.
