During the match, Tsimikas and Arsenal’s Bukayo Saka were both chasing a loose ball. Saka’s contact with the Greek defender inadvertently pushed him off balance and into Klopp. Tsimikas displayed visible discomfort and had to be substituted. Later, it was disclosed on Sky Sports during half-time that he had been taken to the hospital, and Klopp subsequently confirmed the severity of the situation.
Speaking to Sky Sports, Klopp stated, “It was massively overshadowed by Kostas Tsimikas collarbone issue, definitely broken, so he is out for a long time. The other issues we will have to see. It is hard for us to swallow with the Robbo [Andy Robertson] situation.”
Tsimikas’ injury compounds Klopp’s challenges at full-back, especially given the absence of starting left-back Andy Robertson due to a shoulder injury. Joe Gomez, who replaced Tsimikas, isn’t a natural fit for the left-back role and isn’t seen as a lasting solution in that position.
This injury setback means the Greek full-back will face an extended period on the sidelines, dealing a significant blow to an already depleted Reds squad.
