Naby Keïta injury setback deepens Liverpool’s selection problems

Liverpool have suffered a fresh injury blow with midfielder Naby Keïta facing a further spell on the sidelines. The Guinea international missed Monday’s Premier League defeat at Manchester United after suffering a setback prior to the game.

Keïta is yet to feature this season having been ill for the league opener at Fulham and an unused substitute against Crystal Palace last week. The 27-year-old’s absence compounds Jürgen Klopp’s selection problems with Curtis Jones, Ibrahima Konaté, Joël Matip, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Diogo Jota, Thiago Alcântara, Calvin Ramsay and Caoimhin Kelleher all sidelined through injury. Darwin Núñez, Liverpool’s star summer signing, is suspended.
