Liverpool –
Bad news for Liverpool regarding Conor Bradley’s condition. Bradley’s season is over due to having to undergo knee surgery.
Bradley suffered the injury at the end of the match against Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium three days ago. Bradley had to be carried off the field and used crutches after the match.
Initially there was confusion as to whether Bradley had a knee or ankle injury. This then raised concerns in the mind of manager Arne Slot.

This was proven true when Liverpool announced the results of Bradley’s examination, Sunday (11/1/2026) evening WIB. The Northern Ireland defender is confirmed to be out until the end of the season due to a knee injury.
There was damage to the bones and ligaments of Bradley’s left knee. However, Bradley does not need to be out for a long time like Giovanni Leoni, who suffered an ACL injury last September.
Bradley’s absence means Liverpool’s stock of defenders is running low, especially on the right-back side. Only Jeremie Frimpong and Calvin Ramsay are left to fill that position.
There is still Joe Gomez who can sometimes play at right back, but the player is often absent due to injury. Bradley played 21 times with two assists.
Apart from Bradley and Leoni, there is Alexander Isak who was absent for a long time due to a broken leg when he met Tottenham Hotspur.
