Joe Gomez Injury Update
Liverpool have confirmed Joe Gomez is set to undergo surgery to assist his recovery from a lower leg fracture sustained at Burnley at the end of last year.
Reflecting on the news, Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp said: “It’s a blow for the boy and for us - because prior to the injury he was in such fantastic shape.
“But he is too valuable to take any risk with, both for our present and future, so we get this procedure done and he comes back when he’s ready.
“His attitude during this rehab has been outstanding but it just hasn’t healed as we’d have liked so we will make this intervention and then he will come back.”
