The Sun claims that an early diagnosis has ruled him out for four weeks, meaning he would miss both legs of the Champions League quarter-final against City.
Gomez has made 29 appearances for Jurgen Klopp’s side so far this season, establishing himself as in important player in the Reds’ rearguard.
The versatile 20-year-old was given his opportunity at right-back in the Liverpool team due to the long-term injury sustained by Nathaniel Clyne.
