Nets in spot start Gakpo scored one goal to go with eight shots (four on goal) and one chance created in Wednesday's 4-1 victory over Luton Town.

Impact Gakpo got the start with Darwin Nunez (knock) left sidelined, and made the most of it, getting on the scoresheet early in the second half.

Impact Gakpo returned to the starting XI in the EFL Cup and found the back of the net. The striker is in a tough spot.

Active off bench Gakpo (ankle) came off the bench for the final 24 minutes of Thursday's 5-1 win over Toulouse.

Impact Gakpo returned from an ankle injury he suffered before the international break, moving well and seeing run off the bench.

Impact Gakpo has a few days of training in him and it looks like he should get minutes from the bench Thursday, at a minimum. Prior to injury, he was in and out of the starting XI and that may be the case this season as long as Liverpool's bevy of forwards remain healthy. When 100 percent, Luis Diaz and Darwin Nunez may be the preferred options alongside Mohamed Salah, though that could change by the week.

Impact Gakpo was originally given a two-match timeline, so a return in two weeks lines up with that. It sounds only like an ankle sprain, though he was in a brace for a couple days, so that part is worrying. More information should be made known during the break, but it sounds like Gakpo should be playing before the month is over.

Confirmed out Thursday Gakpo (ankle) will miss Thursday's Europa League match, confirmed manager Jurgen Klopp.

Impact Gakpo isn't expected to return before the international break, which means Darwin Nunez and Luis Diaz will likely start with Mohamed Salah up front in Sunday's league match at Brighton, while suspended Diogo Jota likely gets run in Europa League. The good news is the injury doesn't sound too serious for Gakpo and he should be back in training over the break.

Scores, leaves injured Gakpo bagged a goal Saturday against Tottenham but also left the game with an apparent hamstring injury. He was replaced by Diogo Jota at halftime.

Impact Gakpo scored the equalizer for the Reds just before the break, but he appeared to pick up a hamstring injury right after striking the ball and didn't return for the second half. Hamstring injuries are tricky, and it wouldn't be surprising if he's sidelined until after the international break. For now, he should be considered extremely doubtful to face Union SG in the UEFA Europa League next Thursday.
