Liverpool's Frimpong Out Six Weeks With Hamstring Injury
Liverpool has suffered a blow with Jeremie Frimpong ruled out for six weeks due to a hamstring injury. The Dutch-Ghanaian full-back sustained the injury during Liverpool's 5-1 victory over Eintracht Frankfurt last week. This is a recurrence of the same injury that sidelined him earlier in the season.
Frimpong's injury leaves Liverpool short on defensive options at back market. Conor Bradley is the only fit senior specialist right back available for Liverpool. Manager Arne Slot faces a demanding stretch of fixtures with Frimpong's absence. Frimpong's injury compounds a frustrating start to his Liverpool career due to fitness issues.
Possible replacements for Frimpong include Calvin Ramsay and Joe Gomez. However, no specific name has been mentioned as a direct substitute. Liverpool might rely on other fullbacks or backup players in the squad to fill the void.
Frimpong's injury is expected to keep him out until early December, missing several key matches for Liverpool. His pace and attacking play will be missed, but the team will need to adapt and find solutions during his absence.
