'The Times': Diogo Jota injured and to miss Fulham match

Diogo Jota could miss the Premier League match against Fulham because of a knee injury. Paul Joyce, journalist of 'The Times' revealed it, who added to his information that Liverpool will make it public as soon as it's known how serious it is.

This source adds that the Portuguese got injured in the Champions League match against Midtjylland. He had to leave the park in the 87th minute when Saido Mané came on to replace him. He didn't seem to be in any particular pain.

It's unknown how long he could be out for, as only the medical report will reveal what it is. The big matches for the Reds coming up are against Tottenham (16th December) and Manchester United (16th January).

The most likely thing is that, when his injury is made public, Jürgen Klopp speaks about it in the press conference, like he usually does. Diogo Jota is being very important in his formation this season and will be, if confirmed, a very noticeable absentee.
