‘I think’ - Liverpool update on Harvey Elliott after injury scare

Jurgen Klopp allayed fears over Harvey Elliott’s injury concern after he came off in Liverpool’s loss to Lyon.

The attacking midfielder gave the Reds a scare when he came off in the 29th minute of the 3-1 Dubai Super Cup defeat.

With Luis Diaz and Diogo Jota already sidelined for prolonged periods, Elliott also being forced onto the treatment table would have been a blow for Liverpool.

But Klopp believes that Liverpool have been ‘lucky’ as Elliott suffered a knock.

Speaking after the game, the Reds boss said: “Harvey got a knock before we scored, Harvey got a knock. But I think we were lucky.

“He looks fine now but he feels it, that’s normal, there was contact. But I hope we were lucky in that moment.”
