Liverpool Confirm Conor Bradley’s Significant Knee Injury Requiring Surgery

The diagnosis involves bone and ligament damage without an ACL tear, with reports pointing to a season-ending absence.

Overview

  • Liverpool said the right-back will have surgery in the coming days and begin rehabilitation at the AXA Training Centre, with no return timeframe provided.
  • Scans showed damage to bone and ligaments in Bradley’s left knee but no rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament.
  • Multiple outlets report he will miss the rest of Liverpool’s season and he will not feature in Northern Ireland’s March World Cup play-off against Italy.
  • Arsenal’s Gabriel Martinelli was booked for pushing Bradley as he lay injured and later apologised, with the FA taking no further action.
  • Bradley, 22, had made 21 appearances this season, and his absence leaves Jeremie Frimpong and Joe Gomez among Liverpool’s remaining options at right-back.
