Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has admitted that Fabinho’s injury absence if a ‘bit more complicated’ than first thought, ruling the midfielder out of this weekend’s Brighton clash.
Fabinho was a surprise omission from the starting XI that faced Manchester United at Old Trafford, having been limited to just 45 minutes off the bench against Atletico Madrid a few days earlier.
The Brazilian still isn’t ready to return, with Klopp explaining that he hasn’t returned to training.
“With Fabinho it doesn’t look that good, it’s a bit more complicated. Not too complicated, but complicated enough to keep him out now again, probably,” Klopp said, via LiverpoolFC.com.
“I still wait for last news, but he was not in team training yet and that is never a good sign.”
