Liverpool confirm major injury blow as Bradley ruled out for season

Conor Bradley will miss the rest of the season

Bradley has avoided an ACL injury but the defender will need surgery to repair damage to ligaments and bone in his left knee and will miss the rest of the season.

The right-back was forced off in Thursday's 0-0 Premier League draw at Arsenal after landing awkwardly near the touchline when chasing the ball in injury time.

A Liverpool statement read: “Liverpool FC can confirm Conor Bradley has sustained a significant knee injury.

“The right-back suffered the issue in the latter stages of Thursday night's Premier League fixture away at Arsenal.

“Bradley will undergo surgery in the coming days and then begin a period of rehabilitation at the AXA Training Centre.

“No timeframe is being placed on his return to playing at this stage of the process.”
