After returning to training following a two-month break, Diogo Jota is once again facing a spell on the sidelines due to an injury sustained during the game against Fulham. In the build-up to the Premier League derby against Everton, Jurgen Klopp announced that 27-year-old Diogo Jota had picked up another injury.
“When he scored the goal, he felt some discomfort. After tests, it was confirmed that it was an injury. He’ll be out for around two months” revealed the Liverpool manager. Klopp expressed his frustration: “I don’t have many words to describe it. Before the game with Atalanta, Diogo had a little incident that caused discomfort in his hip. He didn’t start, but he got on the pitch without any problems. In the game against Fulham, he was fine physically, except for his finishing. Although it’s not a serious injury, the timing isn’t ideal, given that we’re at the end of the season.”
Diogo Jota has 15 goals and four assists in 32 games for Liverpool this season. He had already been out for two months after picking up an injury in February during the game against Brentford.
