Liverpool manager Arne Slot has expressed concern over Hugo Ekitike's injury, describing it as 'really bad' after the French forward was stretchered off during the Champions League defeat to Paris Saint-Germain. Ekitike suffered an apparent lower leg injury and was replaced by Mohamed Salah. Slot suggested the injury was 'not good' and that Ekitike had gone home at halftime, with further investigation into the injury to be conducted the following day. The Reds' Champions League campaign came to an end with a 2-0 second-leg loss, resulting in a 4-0 aggregate defeat.
Despite the setback, Slot took positives from the match, praising his team's progression and the fans' support. The focus now shifts to securing a Champions League spot for next season, starting with Sunday's Premier League derby against Everton.
