Liverpool have been dealt an injury blow regarding Jeremie Frimpong<\/a>, with the right-back expected to be out for at least another month.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Dutchman has experienced a slow start to life at Anfield, with injury problems getting in the way, as well as playing in a team struggling for confidence.<\/p>\n

Frimpong limped out of the 5-1 win away to Eintracht Frankfurt with his second hamstring issue of the season, acting as one of many blows for Arne Slot<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It has left Conor Bradley<\/a> as the only specialist first-team option at right-back \u2013 though Calvin Ramsay<\/a> started Wednesday\u2019s 3-0 defeat to Crystal Palace<\/a> in the Carabao Cup<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"FRANKFURT,<\/p>\n

Now, the Mail<\/a>\u2018s Lewis Steele reports that Frimpong is \u201cfacing around six weeks on the sidelines\u201d in total.<\/p>\n

The expected return date for the 24-year-old is early December, meaning he is definitely out of the games against Aston Villa<\/a>, Real Madrid<\/a> and Man City<\/a> before the November international break.<\/p>\n

Frimpong is also due to be unavailable during a hectic period after that \u2013 one that sees Liverpool play six times in 17 days between November 22 and December 9.<\/p>\n

This is a clear setback for Frimpong, who hasn\u2019t been able to get any momentum going so far.<\/p>\n

The Netherlands international hasn\u2019t adjusted to the Premier League<\/a>, and the fact that he is no longer being used at wing-back, as was the case at Bayer Leverkusen<\/a>.<\/p>\n

His lengthy absence makes it vital for Bradley to stay fit \u2013 something he hasn\u2019t always found easy \u2013 with Ramsay potentially having to be drafted in too.<\/p>\n

\"FRANKFURT,<\/p>\n

It is also a blow because Frimpong could play on the right wing when Mohamed Salah<\/a> departs for the Africa Cup of Nations, with the tournament starting on December 21.<\/p>\n

Injuries can define any season, and the fitness issues are mounting up for Liverpool, with the likes of Alisson<\/a>, Curtis Jones<\/a> and Alexander Isak<\/a> likely to be out of Saturday\u2019s visit of Villa.<\/p>\n

It is making a tough period for Slot even harder, with the head coach facing mounting pressure if results don\u2019t improve before the international break.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Liverpool have been dealt an injury blow regarding Jeremie Frimpong, with the right-back expected to be out for…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":343846,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[45],"tags":[2368,221,62,67,132,68],"class_list":{"0":"post-343845","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-soccer","8":"tag-jeremie-frimpong","9":"tag-soccer","10":"tag-sports","11":"tag-united-states","12":"tag-unitedstates","13":"tag-us"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115464797151697493","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/343845","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=343845"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/343845\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/343846"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=343845"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=343845"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=343845"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
