Liverpool have been dealt a serious injury blow as playmaker Philippe Coutinho has been ruled out until the end of October after undergoing shoulder surgery.

The former-Inter Milan star has been crucial to The Reds for the last few games and has helped them remain unbeaten in the first four games of the season, but after being subbed off during the side’s 2-2 draw with Swansea City, the club were left fearing the worst.

“It’s been decided Coutinho will now have surgical stabilisation on the AC joint in his shoulder,” Liverpool said.

The club are hopeful that the Brazilian will be back in action near the end of October, which means he will miss around six weeks for Brendan Rodgers’ side.
