Jürgen Klopp has provided an update on Joel Matip’s rehabilitation from the anterior cruciate knee ligament injury he sustained earlier this season.

The centre-back underwent successful surgery after rupturing his ACL during Liverpool’s 4-3 win over Fulham at Anfield in early December.

Klopp expects Matip to miss the remainder of the 2023-24 campaign but said on Wednesday that his recovery is progressing well.

“Joel [is] running – he hates that! But he is able to run again, so that’s good,” the manager stated.

“I think since he got injured this is the best moment because it was very painful in the beginning, very painful for him [but] he got through that and now he is pain-free. But, that now all takes time so I don’t think the season is long enough for him.”
