Keita set for scan after Liverpool midfielder injured on Guinea duty

The Reds expect the summer signing to miss the encounter with Huddersfield Town this weekend after he was hurt in international action

Naby Keita is set to undergo a scan to determine the extent of the injury he sustained on international duty with Guinea.

The Liverpool midfielder sustained a hamstring problem during his country's 1-1 African Cup of Nations qualifying draw with Rwanda earlier this week.

Liverpool are unsure as to how long he will be out for, however, they expect him to miss this weekend's clash with Huddersfield Town.

It has been suggested that Keita trained alone before Guinea's first match against Rwanda last Friday - they played twice, with Guinea successful in their first meeting - as he was potentially managing an issue before the encounter.
