Relief as a fresh update emerges on Cody Gakpo's injury
Expected time frame for Cody Gakpo's return from injury has been confirmed
After undergoing a medical scan, concerns over Gakpo's prolonged absence from the field have been mitigated.
Gakpo is now expected to be out of action until the conclusion of the international break.
This means that he will not be present for the Europa League match against Union Saint-Gilloise at Anfield on Thursday, as well as the Premier League match against Brighton on Sunday.
Assuming his recuperation progresses without a hitch, there is a glimmer of hope that he might be fit in time for Liverpool's match against Everton on October 21st, which takes place after the international break.
On a day filled with misfortune, Liverpool's manager Jurgen Klopp regarded Gakpo's injury as the most significant issue. Throughout the match, the team experienced a series of unfortunate events, including the disallowance of Luis Diaz's goal due to an incorrect offside call, the expulsion of Curtis Jones and Diogo Jota, and ultimately, conceding a late defeat due to Joel Matip's own goal.
Cody Gakpo inury update
When will Cody Gakpo be back in action following injury against Tottenham?
Eindhovens Dagblad's journalist Rik Elfrink has reported that Cody Gakpo is expected to be inactive for several weeks.
The Liverpool forward received a knock in advance of scoring their equalizer against Tottenham Hotspur following a contest from Destiny Udogie.
After the 2-1 loss at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, Jurgen Klopp said that the club were in the process of discovering the magnitude of the problem, but Elfrink reported that the Netherlands international would have a few weeks to recover if everything goes well.
Trent Alexander-Arnold's injury update
Latest update on Trent AlexanderArnold's injury
Liverpool right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold suffered a hamstring injury during Liverpool's 3-0 victory over Aston Villa on Sunday. The nature and extent of the injury were not immediately clear, but scans conducted on Monday indicated that the injury will sideline him for around two weeks.
The injury comes as a blow to the Reds, who are already dealing with the fitness of Ibrahima Konate and Virgil van Dijk's red card booking.
Despite the setback, Liverpool fans can take solace in the fact that Alexander-Arnold's injury is not as severe as initially feared. A two-week timeline for recovery means that the full-back could potentially be available for the Reds' next Premier League game against Wolves or the Europa League tie with LASK.
The injury also means that Alexander-Arnold will not be available for England's upcoming international fixtures. While this is undoubtedly disappointing news for the England team, they have a number of talented players who can fill in the void at right-back.
