Roberto Firmino could miss Liverpool’s Champions League clash with Barcelona.
Firmino was a notable absentee from the Reds’ comprehensive 5-0 win over Huddersfield Town on Friday with a concern of a slight groin muscle tear.
The Brazil international suffered the injury during training on the eve of the visit of Jan Siewert’s side and could now miss Wednesday’s semi-final first leg.
Jurgen Klopp still remains hopeful of Firmino’s inclusion for the trip to the Nou Camp.
He said: “Bobby trained yesterday completely normal. It was not high intensity and I didn’t see it in training.
“It happened obviously in the last situation in training when he felt the muscle a little bit.
“Now that’s the official diagnosis, he has a small tear in a very small muscle – apart from the word ‘tear’ everything is positive.
“It’s Bobby so he might be ready for Wednesday but we don’t know obviously in the moment. But because it’s him it’s more likely than not but we will see.
“Of all the badness you can get it’s pretty much the best but it’s still bad enough that he couldn’t play tonight.”
