Arne Slot fears Jeremie Frimpong could be set for a significant spell on the sidelines after he appeared to suffer a new hamstring injury during Liverpool ’s Champions League win over Eintracht Frankfurt.

Liverpool ended their losing run in style on Wednesday evening as they thrashed Eintracht Frankfurt 5–1 in the Champions League to return to winning ways.
