Cody Gakpo Injury Blow Leaves Liverpool Sweating Ahead of Man City Clash

The Liverpool forward sustained the injury from a heavy tackle by Sasa Lukic in the 17th minute, potentially affecting the club's squad depth ahead of upcoming matches.

  • Liverpool forward Cody Gakpo was forced off 17 minutes into the Netherlands' Nations League match against Serbia in Belgrade after sustaining a left ankle injury.
  • Earlier this week, Gakpo pledged to help Liverpool in its first season under manager Andoni Iraola, following a difficult summer involving transfer interest from Manchester City and Tottenham.
  • Fulham midfielder Sasa Lukic's heavy tackle after 12 minutes earned him a booking, prompting Gakpo to signal for substitution five minutes later.
  • Depending on severity, Gakpo could miss the Netherlands' next two matches against Greece, including the October 1 fixture, creating concern for Liverpool's medical staff.
  • Striker Alexander Isak also recently returned from international duty with a minor injury, leaving The Reds thin for upcoming clashes against City, LASK, and Brentford.
