Liverpool suffered an injury scare less than a week before the start of the Premier League season after Andy Robertson hobbled off in the friendly draw against Athletic Bilbao at Anfield.

The Scotland left-back, who started every league match last season, had to be helped off the pitch by two of the club’s medical team shortly before half-time in the 1-1 draw after appearing to fall awkwardly and injure an ankle attempting to stop a cross by Alex Berenguer.
