Liverpool forward Diogo Jota will miss the rest of the season after suffering another injury, Jurgen Klopp has confirmed.

The 24-year-old was ruled out of the Reds’ Premier League match against West Brom this past Sunday with a foot injury.

Jota went off in the second half of the clash with Manchester United on Thursday as his side ran out 4-2 winners, but it will be his last display of 2020-21.

‘No good thing without a bad thing – so, we won at Manchester United but Diogo got something with the bone,’ Klopp told Sky Sports.

‘Not too serious but serious enough to end the season. That’s it.’

Jota joined Liverpool from Wolves last September but has been limited to just 18 appearances in the Premier League.

The Portugal international suffered a knee injury in December and was kept out of action until early March.

The attacker netted his side’s first goal against United in midweek to take his tally in the top flight to nine, while he also struck four times in nine Champions League appearances.
