PREMIER - Liverpool club doctor on Curtis Jones injury: ''we can’t rush it''

Curtis Jones will be sidelined for a few more weeks after suffering an injury before the international break.

This information comes from the club's official website, which claims that the Jones will be sidelined for the foreseeable future after an unintentional collision during squad training.

“It’s a freak injury and very unlucky, but the important thing to emphasize is there is no lasting damage and his vision won’t be impacted beyond the recovery period,” club doctor, Jim Moxon, told liverpoolfc.com.

“However, the nature of the issue means caution is important; we need to allow it time to heal and we can’t rush it, therefore it won’t be a speedy return.

“It needs to mend before we are able to reintroduce Curtis to full training, but there are things he can do in the meantime to maintain fitness.

“We can’t put a specific timescale on a return beyond it will be a number of weeks from now as it heals naturally, so it’s not one we will risk and patience is a virtue with this specific recovery.”
