Eddie Howe confirms major injury blow ahead of Liverpool test on Saturday

Bournemouth will be without David Brooks for three weeks after the Welshman injured his ankle and will miss the trip to Anfield to face Liverpool.

The 21-year-old has been in fine form for the Cherries this season, scoring six goals and assisting four in 21 Premier League appearances.

His absence will be a major blow for Bournemouth as Eddie Howe confirms he will be out for the entire month of February.

Howe told the media: “David injured his ankle scoring against Chelsea. It was a strange injury, he didn’t feel it kicking the ball but felt in the celebration that he injured himself.

“He’ll be missing for around three weeks we think.”

Bournemouth travel to Anfield this weekend and Liverpool will likely be under immense pressure to win after dropping four points in the last two games as Manchester City face Everton at Goodison Park on Wednesday evening.
