"Hugo suffered a serious injury against PSG on Tuesday night. Unfortunately, the severity of his injury will prevent him from finishing the season with Liverpool and from taking part in the World Cup."
"Ekitike is Liverpool's leading goalscorer this season with 17 goals in all competitions and his absence represents another serious blow to Arne Slot with six games remaining to secure Champions League qualification."
"The trio, signed for a potential 320m in total, have shared a pitch for merely 115 minutes this season. Ekitike's absence increases the importance of Isak getting up to speed after four months out with a fractured leg and ankle injury."
Hugo Ekitike sustained a suspected achilles tendon rupture during a Champions League match against Paris Saint-Germain, ruling him out for the rest of the season and the World Cup. The full extent of his injury is yet to be confirmed, but France's head coach Didier Deschamps has excluded him from World Cup plans. Ekitike, Liverpool's leading goalscorer with 17 goals, was a key player in their Champions League qualification efforts. His absence complicates Liverpool's future plans, especially with Mohamed Salah's departure looming.
