Diogo Jota rues missing out on the World Cup
The Liverpool and Portuguese forward has now joined the long list of players that will miss the mundial in Qatar.
Liverpool Manager, Jurgen Klopp confirmed on Tuesday that the calf muscle injury he sustained against Manchester City on Sunday will see him missing out on one of his ultimate desire.
Jota was stretched off the pitch in stoppage time of the 1-0 win at Anfield and will subsequently miss Liverpool’s remaining eight fixtures prior to the international break in November, as well as his country’s participation in the Qatar finals.
“It’s really not good news about Diogo. Yes, he will miss the World Cup. [It’s a] pretty serious injury in the calf muscle and now the recovery process starts. That’s it pretty much. Klopp said.
Reacting to the development on his Twitter handle, Jota regret his predicament even while he revelled in the victory against Manchester City.
After such a good night at Anfield mine ended in the worst way ! In the last minute one of my dreams collapsed ?
I will be one more supporting from the outside, club and country, and fighting to be back as soon as possible ?
