Liverpool:  Liverpool midfielder Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain may not be able to play for England at the 2018 World Cup in Russia after being carried off the field on a stretcher during the first leg of the Reds’ Champions League semi-final against AS Roma.
The footballer suffered a knee injury on Tuesday after attempting to tackle Aleksandar Kolarov in the 15th minute and was carried back to the dressing room on a stretcher, visibly upset, reports Efe.
“It’s probably a really bad injury. If we can say that already before the scan, that’s never good news … for us it’s a massive blow, of course,” Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp said after the end of the match.
“We have still a few very important games to go and the squad doesn’t get bigger at the moment, so we obviously need to be creative in the next few games,” Klopp added.
Oxlade-Chamberlain is in England coach Gareth Southgate’s starting lineup.(IANS)
