Liverpool will be without Naby Keita for three to four weeks after he was forced off against Barcelona.
Foot 224 report that the midfielder is set for a spell on the sidelines and will not play again for the rest of the season.
The news comes as a huge blow to Liverpool, with Keita enjoying a good run of form towards the end of the season.
Keita suffered an adductor injury at the Nou Camp and was forced off inside the first half.
Despite playing in an unusual position against the Spanish giants, Keita impressed and has proved himself to be a reliable part of the squad in recent weeks.
The loss of Keita will make Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain’s return to action even more important, with the Reds still holding out hope of securing the Premier League title this season.

This is what a tackle led to, in refs clear view and no caution. Bosquet with a harsh slide tackle no caution.. Amazing.. Ref. But Barca fans where busy criticizing the Ref before the match that he might blow against them since he has officiated matches they lost.. who is now fooling who?

Get well soon! Thank God he won’t be in the second leg, he was a thorn on Barca skins for the few minutes he played, after he was sub off Barca began to find their stride, Great player.

we know how international clubs play for Liverpool. they hate Liverpool players maybe it's because they're talented Africans. racism has no room brother Rakitic and Ramos.
