Injury concern for Liverpool goalkeeper Adrian

Friday, 16 August 2019 14:55

There seems to be no end in sight for Liverpool's injury concerns when it comes to goalkeepers.

Manager Jurgen Klopp said Adrian could miss his side's Premier League game against Southampton on Saturday because of an injury.

He said the Spanish keeper has a sore ankle after he collided with a fan at the end of their Super Cup win in Istanbul.

Klopp said Liverpool's third-choice keeper Andy Lonergan is prepared to start if Adrian is ruled out.

First choice keeper Alisson is already out of action for the next few weeks with a calf injury.

The Brazilian picked up the niggle in the season-opener against Norwich City last week.
