Jürgen Klopp announced on Saturday that Kostas Tsimikas suffered a collarbone injury in Liverpool’s 1-1 draw with Arsenal.
Following a clash with Bukayo Saka, the left-back was forced out in the 34th minute of the Premier League match at Anfield.
Meanwhile, Luis Diaz will be evaluated after suffering a knee injury and being replaced during the second period.
“He [Tsimikas] broke his collarbone at least,” Klopp said in his post-match press conference. That is extremely harmful to us.”
When asked if Diaz was injured, the Reds manager said, “I hope not.” He was in discomfort, it was knee on knee, and we wanted to change twice before Lucho fell.
“And actually, we were going to wait to see if Lucho needed to come off, but then we decided to change all three because now we don’t have to wait to see how Lucho is, and that’s what we did.”
“Lucho told me he was in ‘little pain,’ and the physios were unconcerned, but you never know, and we play in three days, and you never know how quick the turnaround is, so we’ll see.” “I’m not sure.”
