Ryan Gravenberch was hobbled off in a 0-0 draw with Manchester United
Due to a hamstring injury sustained against Manchester United, Ryan Gravenberch’s fitness for Liverpool’s demanding Christmas calendar is uncertain, according to Jurgen Klopp as he provides Liverpool injury update.
Around an hour had passed, Erik ten Hag’s team held Liverpool to a 0-0 stalemate at Anfield, forcing the Dutch midfielder to come off the pitch.
Key midfield players Thiago, Alexis Mac Allister, and Stefan Bajcetic are already out of the lineup for Liverpool. And with the Reds playing three games in the next nine days, Gravenberch might be the most recent player to be sidelined for an extended period of time.
‘We will see. They told me directly after the game it got worse during the game, so that means it was not ‘bam’. He felt a little bit and didn’t show immediately,’ Klopp revealed after the game.
‘We hoped it would go by, [but] it didn’t. There was this really intense sprint with the ball which ended on the 18-yard line with a collision.

‘I hope it is not that serious but we have in the next nine days three more games, so I don’t know if he will be part of them or one of them. We will see, we have to make a scan.’
Liverpool’s Carabao Cup quarterfinal matchup against West Ham at home on Wednesday comes with a short turnaround.
After that, Klopp’s team has a crucial match against Premier League leaders Arsenal on the weekend, followed by a Boxing Day midweek visit to Burnley.
In addition to the unavailability of these midfield players, Klopp is also without Digo Jota, Joel Matip, and Andrew Robertson. In his post-match remarks, Klopp called the demanding winter calendar “awful,” but he also urged his players to support one another to keep up their title challenge.
‘It’s December, it’s the toughest period of the year. Everybody has to get through it somehow, everybody has to dig really deep to get through it,’ he said.
