This is very painful. Klopp spoke about the injury of the Liverpool leader

Liverpool coach Jürgen Klopp admitted that he is worried about the condition of the Reds' Argentine midfielder Alexis Mac Allister.

As you know, the star Argentinean was injured in the 16th round of the Premier League against Crystal Palace (2:1). According to the German coach, now everything looks sadder than it seemed initially, writes the official Liverpool website.

"The situation is more complicated than it initially seemed. He was stepped on his knee, the spike penetrated the muscle and reached the bone. It is very painful, so we need to give it time to heal. I have never encountered such injuries before, this is the first time in my career. I hope that Mac Allister will not miss much time, but he needs time to recover,” the specialist said.

It is reasonable to mention that Liverpool is the leader of the Premier League at the moment. Mac Allister has made 14 league appearances this season and scored one goal.
