Welcome to the ECHO's Liverpool FC live blog for Friday, October 13.

As many tie today's date with bad omens, it is already off to a bad start for all concerned with Liverpool. Anfield staff and supporters alike had to watch on as Andy Robertson was forced off with injury for Scotland last night. The full-back suffered a nasty clash with Spain goalkeeper Unai Simon, who landed on the Liverpool man's shoulder.

Robertson was forced off before half-time, holding his arm tight to his body - not a good look ahead of next week's Merseyside derby. There is more news to come with this story.

Meanwhile in the transfer market Jurgen Klopp is reportedly eyeing a long-term left back replacement in Patrick Dorgu of Lecce, with it suggested a deal could be explored in January. On the other hand linked midfielder Fede Valverde seems set to put pen to paper on an improved deal at Real Madrid.
