Table-topping Liverpool may be without Uruguayan striker Darwin Nunez for their crunch Premier League clash at Arsenal this weekend, manager Juergen Klopp said on Friday.
Liverpool defeated Chelsea 4-1 on Wednesday and Nunez played the full 90 minutes, but Klopp said he left the pitch wearing a protective boot afterwards.
“I don’t know if Darwin is available or not because after 20 minutes someone stepped on his foot and it hurt a lot,” Klopp told reporters before Sunday’s match at the Emirates.

“He only took his boot off after the game because he didn’t want to see it before, he knew there was something, so he left the stadium with a boot, and it wasn’t a football boot.”
“Nothing has been broken, the x-ray is clear, but it is swollen,” he added.
