Adam Lallana will miss Liverpool's upcoming match against Brighton after suffering a triple injury blow. The midfielder, who joined Brighton on loan from Liverpool in the summer, has been sidelined with a groin strain, a hamstring injury, and a calf problem.
The news will come as a major blow to Brighton manager Graham Potter, who has been counting on Lallana to provide some much-needed creativity in midfield. The 32-year-old has been a key player for the Seagulls this season, making 10 appearances and scoring one goal.
Lallana's absence will also be felt by Liverpool, who are looking to secure a win against Brighton and maintain their position at the top of the Premier League table. The midfielder, who spent six years with Liverpool before joining Brighton, played a crucial role in the club's Champions League and Premier League titles in the 2018/19 season.
It's unclear at this time how long Lallana will be out for, but Brighton will hope to have him back in action as soon as possible. In the meantime, the Seagulls will have to make do without one of their key players and look to other members of the squad to step up and fill the void.
This is not the first time Lallana has been struck by injury this season. He had been out of action for a while since he joined Brighton on loan, which had raised some concerns over his fitness and durability.
The match between Liverpool and Brighton will take place on Saturday, and it will be interesting to see how the Seagulls cope without Lallana. The Reds will be favorites to win, but Brighton will be eager to cause an upset and secure a valuable point against the reigning Premier League champions.
