Surgery

He will be out of action for seven to nine months after undergoing surgery on Wednesday.

Ings, who was making his way back to fitness and had made two appearances of the bench for Liverpool this season, missed the majority of last season after damaging the anterior cruciate ligament in his other knee.

Klopp: "We are gutted"

"To say we are gutted would be an understatement; he is such a great boy and has worked so hard that he deserves better luck than this," manager Jürgen Klopp told the club's website.
