Liverpool go on with their 100%start to the season with another 3-0 win against Southampton.
The only major blow caused Van Dijk injury, who had to wait for 10 minutes into the second half clutching his rib.
In his post match interview manager Jurgen Klopp has stated he is confident the injury which Virgil van Dijk suffered against Southampton will not rule him out of Liverpool’s upcoming fixtures.
‘He had already before the PSG game a bruise on his ribs which is very uncomfortable, and today had another hit there,’ said Klopp. ‘It’s not cool, but it should not be too serious. He said he couldn’t shout anymore, and that’s obviously 60% less his level! ‘He should be absolutely okay, hopefully. I didn’t hear anything different.’
The key player will be needed ahead of back-to-back fixtures against Chelsea, as well as key matches against Napoli and Manchester City.
