"Liverpool" leader Philippe Coutinho is already preparing to spend a long period without football. Finding out the final results of medical examinations today, the Brazilian thanked the fans for their support. The attacking midfielder played only 34 minutes in Sunday's match against "Sunderland" before being forced to leave with a drooped head. It is believed that the 24-year-old footballer suffered a complex ankle injury. "I'd like to thank my family, fans and friends for all the positive messages, that's very important to me," Coutinho wrote on the social network Instagram. Liverpool's team is expected to have a very difficult period without this player. Since arriving at Anfield in 2013, he has become one of the most important members of the "Reds" and this season he has scored five goals and provided as many assists in 13 Premier League matches. According to the latest reports, Coutinho will not play for about 5-6 weeks and should return to the field at the beginning of next year.
