Eustace revealed as much when speaking to the press ahead of the weekend, as he said: "Unfortunately, Owen has had to have surgery on his hamstring, so he's going to be out for the next three or four months."I feel really sorry for Becky, and obviously, I had worked with him at Blackburn. He'll come back stronger, but it's not going to be with us."Beck's loan deal is set to be terminated in January, with a return to Anfield already confirmed while he recovers from his latest injury setback.

The 23-year-old didn't make an appearance for Derby during his spell at the club, while he has made three appearances for the Liverpool senior side so far.It's a blow for the left-back, who had been been an exciting signing for Eustace over the summer. The Derby head coach said at the time: "He’s a really exciting young player and I was very fortunate to work with him last year."I think everyone could see the growth he made playing in the Championship, and he’s a super young talented player and he’s one of the most exciting full-backs in the country for his age at the moment.

There is a lot to improve, and if he comes to Derby and chooses to come to us, our job is to help develop him."Beck himself outlined the challenges before the season, when he spoke to RamsTV and explained how staying free from injury was a key objective of his. Hopefully, I can hit my personal goals and help the team achieve theirs too."Unfortunately for the Liverpool star, that hasn't been possible, as he now makes his return to the club.
