Premier League table toppers Liverpool have received disappointing news this week.
The Anfield club have learned that they must contend with an injury blow ahead of the Carabao Cup final.
As they prepare to take on Chelsea next weekend, defender Trent Alexander-Arnold is a doubt.
The right-back is certain to miss this weekend's Premier League games, but may miss the cup final a week later too.
He suffered a minor tear of a lateral knee ligament when they beat Arsenal in the FA Cup in January.
Per The Mirror and other sources, the player does not want to rush back for risk of making the problem worse.
