Jürgen Klopp confirmed Kostas Tsimikas suffered a collarbone injury during Liverpool's 1-1 draw with Arsenal on Saturday evening.

The left-back was forced off in the 34th minute of the Premier League affair at Anfield following a duel with Bukayo Saka.

Luis Diaz, meanwhile, will be assessed after he took a knock to his knee and was substituted during the second period.

Speaking at his post-match press conference, Klopp said: "He [Tsimikas] broke his collarbone at least. That's really bad for us."

Asked whether Diaz has an injury, the Reds boss replied: "I hope not. He has pain, it was knee on knee and in that moment we wanted to change twice and then Lucho was down.

"And actually we first wanted to wait if maybe Lucho has to come off but then we decided [to] change all three because now we don't have to wait how Lucho is and that's what we did then.

"Lucho told me 'little pain', physios were not too concerned, but you never know and we play in three days and you never know how quick the turnaround is, so we have to see. I don't know."
