‘Diogo is in a similar situation, but it takes at least two-and-a-half weeks until they can return to training.’
Liverpool have three Premier League matches in eight days upcoming, starting with the game against Brighton on Sunday.

Liverpool are currently dealing with several other injuries as well. Trent Alexander-Arnold is still out, and Curtis Jones, Darwin Nunez, and Andy Robertson are struggling but hopeful of returning against Brighton.
