Fermin Lopez suffered a gruesome facial injury in the first half of Barcelona's Champions League tie with Atletico. He was already playing with a headband, after needing stitches in a wound following a collision in training, when he was hit full in the face by goalkeeper Juan Musso's boot.
Liverpool right-back Conor Bradley has confirmed he has undergone successful surgery on the knee injury that has ruled him out for the remainder of the season. The 22-year-old was forced off during Liverpool's 0-0 Premier League draw away to Arsenal last week and will not feature again this campaign. Bradley confirmed the operation in a post on Instagram, sharing an image of himself being carried off the pitch on a stretcher at the Emirates Stadium.
Liverpool were beaten by Manchester City on Sunday and suffered the late twist of a red card for Dominik Szoboszlai, who will miss the Reds' midweek fixture through suspension. If the current Liverpool side endured a sour weekend, future teammate Jeremy Jacquet was already in worse shape after he was forced out of Rennes' Ligue 1 loss away at Lens.
