Liverpool are set to be without Conor Bradley for the rest of April after the right-back limped off injured during the Reds’ 1-0 defeat to Crystal Palace at Anfield on Sunday.
The 20-year-old will need two to three weeks to recover from his ankle injury, reports The Athletic, but will return in time before the current season ends.

The saving grace for Klopp is that Trent Alexander-Arnold is fit again and having missed most of 2024 through his own injury issues, the 25-year-old will be eager to make an impact on the remainder of the season.
