Liverpool's Trent Alexander-Arnold out for few weeks with hamstring injury, confirms Jurgen Klopp

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp confirmed that Trent Alexander-Arnold will miss England's international fixtures against Switzerland and Ivory Coast in March due to a hamstring injury.

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp confirmed on Friday that defender Trent Alexander-Arnold will be out for a few weeks due to a hamstring injury, thereby missing England's international fixtures against Switzerland and Ivory Coast in March.

Liverpool will miss Alexander-Arnold for a couple of upcoming games, which includes Sunday's FA Cup quarter-final against Nottingham Forest.

Klopp has rated Alexander-Arnold highly with the defender scoring two goals and 17 assists from 35 games in the ongoing season in all competitions. Liverpool are short on replacements as James Milner is also unwell.

"Trent is out with a hamstring (injury) so he can't be part of the England squad as well. Not good news, we'll see how long that takes," Klopp said.

"We'll see how long it'll take, but of course to replace Trent is difficult, but it's possible. We have James Milner and Joe Gomez... theoretically, we can change the system as well, so we have a couple of options.

"Trent is very influential but in the past when Milner had to step in he did incredibly well, he just has to be available, but how he'll be for Sunday I don't know at the moment. If he isn't available we can look at a young solution."
