Liverpool’s Philippe Coutinho Could Be Out For Months After Very Bad Injury Against Sunderland (Photos)

Liverpool forward Philippe Coutinho could face a lengthy spell out after being taken off on a stretcher during the 2-0 win against Sunderland.

The 24-year-old was tackled by Didier Ndong and immediately dropped to the turf wincing in pain before being carried off with his leg in a brace.

Ex-Arsenal defender Martin Keown said on Final Score:

“It’s not looking good.

“He was writhing in agony and waved at the bench straight away. It looks like a really bad injury.”

He added: “It could possibly be a broken foot or, at best a twisted ankle.”

Brazilian Coutinho has been in superb form for Jurgen Klopp’s side this season scoring five league goals and six assists in the Premier League.
