Wataru Endo has joined Liverpool’s growing injury list after playing a crucial part in Liverpool’s Carabao Cup final win over Chelsea.
The Japanese international was instrumental in the 1-0 win – courtesy of Virgil van Dijk’s header in extra-time – dominating the Blues’ midfield across normal and extra time.
The sight of him on crutches and in a protective boot, however, will have set alarm bells ringing at Anfield with Ryan Gravenberch also suffering the effects of the final in Wembley.

We won, but at what cost 😭
