Liverpool defender Jeremie Jacquet has returned from international duty with France nursing a hamstring injury.
The French Football Federation confirmed the injury to the 21-year-old centre-back ahead of the team's final match during this international window, where France triumphed 4-1 over Belgium.
Jacquet missed the squad for the Belgium match after featuring in the starting lineup for two previous games - a narrow 1-0 victory against the same opponents and a 1-1 draw with Italy.
Exact recovery times have yet to be disclosed, with Jacquet set to undergo medical examinations in the coming days. This will clarify whether he'll be available for Liverpool’s crucial clash against Manchester City on October 11.
However, French head coach Zinedine Zidane has sought to ease Liverpool's worries regarding Jacquet's condition.
"He has a small injury," Zidane stated, addressing concerns over Jacquet's fitness.
Jacquet has become a key component of Andoni Iraola's side this season, having started six out of seven matches for Liverpool. His potential absence would be a significant blow for the Reds ahead of the showdown with Manchester City.
