"We're probably looking at something that is going to head into the latter part of the year. If there's any return in 2026, it would be a massive bonus for Liverpool, but it could quite easily stretch into the early part of 2027."
"You're always concerned with regards to a non-contact injury, and the tests showed that there was bone damage as well as ligament damage. The mechanism itself suggested that it was a serious ACL problem."
Conor Bradley suffered a major knee injury during a stoppage-time non-contact incident at Arsenal in early January, with scans showing both significant ligament and bone damage consistent with a severe ACL injury. Medical assessments now indicate recovery could extend into the latter part of 2026, and a return in 2026 would be a bonus; the rehabilitation could instead stretch into early 2027. The club had hoped for a pre-season return, but that timeline now appears unlikely. The right-back position has minimal depth as Jeremie Frimpong is sidelined with a groin issue and Joe Gomez is coping with a hip problem, forcing midfielders into defensive roles.
