Injured, Adrian Doubtful Being Played Against Southampton

Adrian

DBasia.news –  Liverpool’s new goalkeeper, Adrian, was the hero of the team’s victory in Istanbul when they beat Chelsea at the UEFA Super Cup on Thursday (8/15) early morning Western Indonesian Time. Adrian brushed aside Tammy Abraham’s penalty in the shootout.

Adrian replaces Alisson, who suffered an injury in the match against Norwich City at Anfield. Alisson’s injury is expected to give Adrian time to play high enough in the next few weeks.

But now Adrian is doubtful when the Reds travel to St. Mary’s to face Southampton on Saturday (8/17). Jurgen Klopp as Liverpool manager said that Adrian would undergo an examination due to an ankle injury. The injury occurred due to contact with supporters who entered the field at the end of the fight.

“Of course it will be very beneficial if we can ensure that Adrian can appear in the next match. I don’t understand the reason for this situation, in a world filled with social media attention, when we gather to celebrate a victory, someone comes into the field, is chased by security personnel, slips and kicks Adrian’s ankle,” Jurgen Klopp told a press conference quoted from the official website of Liverpool.

Currently, Liverpool also has Andy Lonergan, a 35-year-old player who was brought in for free, and Caoimhin Kelleher who has been in their academy for the past few seasons.
