Germany were dealt a double injury blow on Thursday, as Bayern Munich's Jamal Musiala was forced to pull out of the starting lineup for their 1-1 UEFA Nations League draw with the Netherlands before Arsenal's Kai Havertz was later forced off in the first half.
Musiala reported thigh discomfort during the warm-up and was ultimately ruled out, while Havertz was forced off before half-time after also appearing to pick up a thigh problem.
“At the moment, both of them are undergoing MRI scans. I hope we’ll get the diagnosis this evening," Klopp told RTL in a post-match interview.
“But, of course, this isn’t good news. I hope it’s nothing serious.”
Whether the duo will be fit for Sunday’s game against Greece is now highly doubtful.
“The guys are probably out for us. But hopefully they’ll be fit and available again relatively quickly,” Klopp said.
