Arne Slot has provided an injury update on Wataru Endo, who has been out action since the win at Sunderland in early February. The challenge initially looked innocuous, but scans later revealed a serious ankle and ligament problem that required surgery and effectively ruled him out for the bulk of the run‑in.The Japan skipper actually spoke on his injury a few weeks back, explaining that a ligament in his ankle was completely severed:“The injury is quite hard to explain.



It was a ligament injury. The ligament is completely gone.

I chose the second one, an artificial ligament, because it’s a bit easier to do the rehab. To put a plate in I needed to take it out after three months.”Endo also described being moved to tears on the stretcher, not only because of the pain but because of the travelling Liverpool support singing his name as he left the pitch.However, Arne Slot’s latest update is at least more upbeat.
