Liverpool’s difficult week has taken another blow as new reports suggest one of their stars may be out for an extended period. According to injury experts, forward Hugo Ekitike has suffered a severe hamstring problem that could potentially keep him sidelined until 2027 if complications arise.
The news comes at a crucial stage of the season, leaving manager Arne Slot’s squad stretched and supporters worried about the long-term impact on the team’s attacking options. Ekitike, signed to add depth and dynamism to Liverpool’s frontline, had begun to show glimpses of promise before the setback.
Meanwhile, goalkeeper Alisson Becker is also recovering from an injury, though updates suggest his absence may be shorter. Medical staff are monitoring his progress closely, with an eye on a possible return later in the campaign, depending on his rehabilitation timeline.
Liverpool’s recent form has already raised concerns, and these fresh injury woes add to the mounting pressure on the squad. The coming weeks will be crucial in determining how the team copes without key players available.
