Liverpool manager Arne Slot expressed concern over Hugo Ekitike's injury, describing it as "really bad" after the player was stretchered off during the team's Champions League defeat to Paris Saint-Germain. Ekitike was forced off the field with an apparent lower leg injury, sparking fears of a serious Achilles problem.
The French forward had been in excellent form, scoring 19 goals for Liverpool and France this season. Slot's side put in a vastly improved performance but ultimately fell short, losing 2-0 on the night and 4-0 on aggregate.
Despite the setback, Slot took positives from the match, praising his players' hard work and the fans' support. Liverpool's focus now shifts to securing a top-four finish in the Premier League, starting with Sunday's derby against Everton.
