Devastating blow for Liverpool, star player could be out for the season

Liverpool have been dealt another massive injury blow after it was reported that the club’s best defender Mamadou Sakho could be out for the season with cruciate ligament damage.

The French centre back jarred his knee after landing awkwardly during Liverpool’s 2-1 defeat at the hands of Crystal Palace on Sunday.

Although Sakho tried to jog it off, the former PSG man had to come off with discomfort eventually.

Sakho was pictured leaving Anfield in crutches after the game and the player was due to arrive for scans earlier today.
