Conor Bradley, the 20-year-old Liverpool right-back, is anticipated to be sidelined for approximately three weeks due to an ankle injury. The injury occurred early in the second half of Sunday’s Premier League match against Crystal Palace.
Trent Alexander-Arnold, who had been out since February with a knee injury, replaced Bradley during the game. As a result, Bradley is expected to miss the upcoming Europa League fixture against Atalanta, as well as the Premier League matches against Fulham, Everton, and West Ham throughout the remainder of April.
Liverpool find themselves trailing 3-0 against Atalanta as they head into the second leg of their Europa League quarter-final in Italy on Thursday.
In May, there is a possibility of Bradley making a comeback for Liverpool as they face Tottenham, Aston Villa, and Wolves to conclude their Premier League campaign.
Throughout this season, the Northern Ireland international has featured in 22 matches for the Reds, contributing with one goal and six assists.
Following their defeat at home against Palace, Liverpool now sit two points behind the table-toppers Manchester City with only six games remaining.
