High grade adductor injury. The tendon is ruptured.“Will keep him out for at least two months. “Bad news for us and for Guinea with the Africa Cup of Nations coming up. Not nice.”Liverpool’s Premier League season comes to an end next weekend with the visit of Wolves, with Saturday’s trip to Newcastle and Barcelona’s return match at Anfield scheduled to take place beforehand.Should they complete a remarkable turnaround against the LaLiga giants, the Reds will also have to play the Champions League on June 1.
