confirmed the forward suffered a rupture of the Achilles tendon<\/strong> during the first half of Tuesday’s Champions League affair with Paris Saint-Germain at Anfield.<\/p>\nHe will therefore miss the remainder of the Reds’ 2025-26 campaign and be unable to represent France at this summer’s World Cup.<\/p>\n
The No.22 posted on Instagram: “It’s hard, maybe even unfair\u2026 but I’m grateful this is happening to me here, among you. I’m not alone. <\/p>\n
“Your strength and your love will be my driving force. See you again soon, Anfield.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
