‘Absolutely brilliant’ Liverpool star ‘nursing a back injury’ ahead of Man City clash – David Lynch
Liverpool may need to be cautious with Kostas Tsimikas upon his return from international duty after it was reported that the fullback is suffering from a ‘back injury’.
This comes courtesy of a tweet from Football Insider’s David Lynch, with the Reds set to face off against Premier League title hopefuls Manchester City in two days’ time.

Fortunately, it seems that the issue affecting our ‘absolutely brilliant’ (as praised by Darren Ambrose on Sky, via The Boot Room, during a 2-0 win over Wolves at the start of March) Greek Scouser isn’t too serious, though the availability of Andy Robertson should mean we won’t need to risk him in Manchester.

We don’t need to be reminded of the importance of securing Champions League football for another season ahead of what could prove to be the biggest summer of Jurgen Klopp’s reign at Anfield.
Still, if some good fortune with injuries was to present itself at any time in 2022/23 – the present moment would be most welcome.
