Injury news: Fabinho ruled out of Reds' trip to Leicester
Liverpool will be without Fabinho for Saturday's lunchtime encounter with Leicester City, Jürgen Klopp has confirmed.
The Brazilian will sit out the contest at King Power Stadium due to a muscle issue.
Klopp told his pre-match press conference: “Fab will not be available. He suffered again a little muscle issue, so will be out for this game.”
Liverpool travel to Budapest to take on RB Leipzig in the first leg of the last-16 Champions League tie on Tuesday before hosting Everton at Anfield next Saturday.
Asked whether Fabinho could return for either of those forthcoming fixtures, Klopp replied: “I don’t know in the moment, we will see. I really don’t know.”
