The Reds' No.9 is sidelined for the foreseeable future, with no timeframe set on his return after he underwent an operation on an ankle problem, which included a fibula fracture.

Taking to social media to send a message to Liverpool supporters, he wrote: "Gutted to be out for a while. Time to recover and support from the sideline. I will work hard to be back as soon as I possibly can.

"Thank you all Reds and everyone else for the kind messages, it does not go unnoticed."
