Jurgen Klopp has revealed Trent Alexander-Arnold will undergo tests after injuring his hamstring during Liverpool’s 3-0 win over Aston Villa.
The England international captained the Reds at Anfield for the first time in the absence of suspended Virgil van Dijk, grabbing an early assist in a memorable performance after setting up Dominik Szoboszlai’s opening goal.
However, he limped off in the 71st minute and was replaced by Jarell Quansah after being treated on the pitch. Speaking to reporters after the final whistle, Klopp confirmed the defender had injured his hamstring. And while Alexander-Arnold played down the seriousness of the Liverpool manager, the German admitted the Reds will have to wait and see.
I’m also interested. I don’t know exactly,” he said. “I asked him about it and he said it was the hamstring. His opinion is not too serious, but of course we still have to wait for the scans. Then we’ll know more
Aside from Trent’s hamstrings, it was a perfect afternoon. The atmosphere, the weather. My God! I can’t imagine a better Sunday
