The Premier League leaders are not putting a timescale on when he will return, but the centre-half hopes to play again before the season is over
Liverpool have been dealt an injury blow with Joe Gomez set to undergo surgery on his fractured leg.
The England international has been sidelined since early December after suffering the injury in a tackle with Burnley’s Ben Mee. The Reds had initially expected Gomez to miss around six weeks of action, but the 21-year-old’s recovery has been more complicated than first thought.
And he is now set to have an operation which Liverpool hope will speed along his rehabilitation.
