English Football Club Liverpool: English Football Club Liverpool's boss Arne Slot has provided a fresh update on the recovery of their premier striker Hugo Ekitike, who has been ruled out of the whole season due to an Achilles injury.

The forward ruptured his Achilles tendon during Liverpool's Champions League quarter-final second leg with Paris Saint-Germain at Anfield earlier this month.

As a result, Ekitike is now set for an extended spell on the sidelines and will miss the rest of the season, along with this summer's World Cup with France.
