Liverpool midfielder Naby Keita isn't expected to be seen until next month after suffering an injury while on international duty with Guinea.

The Mirror says Keita faces two weeks on the sidelines following the hamstring injury he picked up on international duty, according to reports in his native Guinea.

The Liverpool midfielder had Reds fans sweating when he was helped off the pitch on the back of one of his teammates during Guinea's 1-1 draw in their African Nations Cup qualifier in Rwanda on Tuesday.

That followed on from him leaving the field with a back injury in Liverpool's Champions League defeat at Napoli, after which he'd been forced to spend an evening in a Naples hospital.

The news was revealed by Guinean journalist Sega Diallo, who is close to the Keita camp.
