Andoni Iraola Issues Barcola Update After Injury Scare in Liverpool vs Atletico
Andoni Iraola said Bradley Barcola’s exit was only cramp after the forward’s full debut in Liverpool’s 2-1 Champions League win.
- Liverpool head coach Andoni Iraola confirmed £123m forward Bradley Barcola suffered only cramp during Wednesday's 2-1 Champions League victory over Atletico Madrid, easing injury concerns after the player left the field in the 60th minute.
- Barcola, who joined from Paris Saint-Germain, is building match sharpness after missing pre-season; Iraola is carefully managing the forward's workload as he lacks 90-minute fitness after limited competitive minutes.
- During his full debut, Barcola created two clear chances against Atletico and impressed with his movement, though he did not score; Iraola praised his positioning as crucial to making a difference.
- Ahead of Saturday's visit of Fulham, Liverpool faces uncertainty regarding fellow forward Cody Gakpo, who is rated 50-50 for the fixture after missing the Atletico game with an adductor issue.
- Iraola described Liverpool as being in a "construction phase" while conceding goals across recent matches; midfielders Dominik Szoboszlai and Alexis Mac Allister are contributing offensively to compensate for defensive vulnerabilities.
