NewsArne Slot offers post-match update on Ibrahima Konate injury
The centre-back was unable to continue after the interval due to a knock and was replaced by Joe Gomez as the Reds went on to record a 2-1 victory.
Konate will now require further assessment from the club's medical team to determine whether he faces a spell on the sidelines.
Asked about the injury, Slot told his post-match press conference: "We don't know yet. He had a lot of pain, but he hasn't been to the hospital yet - and maybe it is not even necessary to go to the hospital, I don't know.
"It is always difficult to judge an injury in the first hour or first 10 minutes after it happens. Let's hope he can be with us as soon as possible because he had a big impact on our season until now.
"But Joe deserved the trust I gave him today because he played outstanding in the second half."
With Konate unable to continue, Slot turned to Gomez to partner Virgil van Dijk in defence - and was full of praise for his performance as goals from Cody Gakpo and Mohamed Salah sealed the turnaround win to send Liverpool clear at the top of the Premier League table.
The head coach added: "It was not only the first half that was a big disappointment, there was also the disappointment that [Konate] had to go off because he has been really good for us the whole season.
"The good thing is in that position I have two very good options as well with Jarell Quansah and Joe Gomez.
"I took Jarell off five minutes before the end in Brighton [on Wednesday] because for 20 minutes he was already stretching and I could feel and see that he was tired, which is not so strange because he hasn't played that much.
"Then, with 45 minutes to go [today], I felt I had to bring someone in that is fitter than Jarell was during the week."
