The Reds recently beat Sheffield United 2-0, but player Alexis Mac Allister had to leave the game because of an injury.

Following the posting of a picture of himself on social media using crutches, Alexis Mac Allister shared some worrying news about his injury healing.

During Liverpool’s 2-0 win over Sheffield United last Wednesday, the player had to leave the field. However, Jurgen Klopp played down his absence when he spoke after the game.

Klopp talked about the No. 10’s situation at Bramall Lane. “Macca, it’s a shame that he got cut early. As long as the wound was open, we just strapped it,” he said. He was in pain, but he could still play. And after we stitched it up, it got a little tighter, so he couldn’t move. We need to find out how long that will take. I hope it’s not too long.”

Two days later, at his pre-match press conference to talk about Saturday’s game at Crystal Palace, the Liverpool manager said that things had gotten worse. The German said, “Macca doesn’t look good, so we have to see day by day.” “After the game, they were pretty sure it wasn’t serious.” Not a big deal, but if you miss five days of work, that’s about 12 games over the course of the year.

Now, Mac Allister has gone on Instagram to show how his recovery is going. He also posted pictures that makes it look like the Argentine’s injury might be worse than first thought. Supporters will be most worried about the picture of the 24-year-old on crutches, which came with the following message from Mac Allister: “A look back at last week. I’m determined to get better and will do my best to be back soon. Thanks for always being there for me! #YNWA.”

This week, Liverpool has two games. On Thursday, they play Royale Union Saint-Gilloise in the Europa League, and on Sunday, they play Manchester United. Since Mac Allister is still getting back in shape, it doesn’t look like he will play in either game.
