Liverpool left-back Andrew Robertson is to have an operation on the shoulder he injured while playing for Scotland, says Reds manager Jurgen Klopp.

He was hurt in a challenge with Spain keeper Unai Simon during 12 October's Euro 2024 qualifying defeat and left the pitch cradling his arm in a shirt.

"The decision we go towards is surgery," said Klopp, whose side face Everton on Saturday (12:30 BST).

"That means he's out for a while. I don't know exactly how long."

Klopp added: "There was a little chance that we could try without but, after speaking to pretty much all experts, it looks like surgery will be the best thing, especially in the long term."
