There's fears the year is over for Liverpool crock Fabinho.

The Daily Mail says Fabinho could miss their most demanding spell of the season due to the ankle injury he sustained in their Champions League draw with Napoli.

The Brazil midfielder, who has become one of Jurgen Klopp's most trusted players, was substituted midway through the first half of Wednesday's 1-1 draw with the Italians and Klopp's reaction suggested immediately the damage he sustained was serious.

Fabinho did not undergo scans on Thursday, as Liverpool wanted to let the injury settle down, but they are concerned that tests will show that he is going to be sidelined for a period of four to six weeks.

If that happens to be the case, Fabinho who has established himself as Klopp's first choice midfielder could miss as many as 10 games, including the decisive Champions League fixture with Red Bull Salzburg plus the entire Club World Cup campaign in Qatar.
