Emre Can's hopes of featuring for Liverpool in the Champions League final are receding with the midfielder no closer to a return from injury.
The German international has been troubled by a back injury and has not featured for club or country since March, but had hoped to resume full training this week.
Monday was seen as an important day for Can's recovery, but scan results on his injury remain inconclusive and he has already been ruled out of Sunday's final Premier League game of the season against Brighton.
There is still a chance that the 24-year-old will be fit enough to begin light training at Melwood next week, which would give him almost two weeks to prove himself to manager Jurgen Klopp before the final against Real Madrid in Kiev on May 26.
