Jurgen Klopp admitted he is unsure if Conor Bradley suffered ligament damage after sustaining a foot injury in the second half of Sunday's 1-0 defeat to Crystal Palace.

The Northern Ireland international hobbled off at Anfield after a coming-together with Palace goal-scorer Eberechi Eze three minutes after the break and was replaced by Trent Alexander-Arnold, making his first Liverpool appearance since February 10.

The right-back, who has made 10 Premier League appearances for the Reds this season, was visibly distressed as he left the field with the help of the Reds' medical staff and headed straight down the tunnel.

Asked in his post-match press conference about the severity of Bradley's injury, Klopp said: "Conor overstretched his foot slightly.

"Right now, is the ligament damaged or not? I don’t know. We will get that information on Monday or Tuesday. It was very painful for him."

Liverpool are next in action on Thursday when they travel to Bergamo for the second leg of their Europa League quarter-final against Atalanta.
