Hugo Ekitike is confident that he is not seriously injured despite being forced off the pitch in Liverpool’s 1-0 defeat to Galatasaray, The Athletic’s James Pearce reports.
The French striker believes it was a cramp rather than anything else, which would mean he’d be available to face Chelsea this weekend.
Speaking after the match, Arne Slot expressed hope that Ekitike was ‘not in a bad way’, although scans were still required to determine how serious the issue was.
He missed the last Premier League game against Crystal Palace due to suspension.
