Liverpool could be without the defenders Ibrahima Konaté and Conor Bradley when Manchester City visit on Sunday, with Arne Slot admitting the early signs on the injuries they sustained against Real Madrid are not good.

Bradley was forced off in the 87th minute of Wednesday’s accomplished Champions League victory by a hamstring injury and Konaté limped away after the final whistle with a knee problem. Both continued to be assessed at Liverpool’s AXA training complex on Thursday, with Bradley having a scan on an injury that could sideline him for several weeks.
