Ekitike went down off the ball 30 minutes into the quarter-final second leg, which the Reds lost 2-0 on the night and 4-0 on aggregate. He was seen holding his ankle and was visibly in discomfort before being taken off the pitch.

"Hugo looks really bad but it is difficult to say how bad," Slot said after the game. It doesn't look good, that is clear. I didn't see him at half-time and after the game he was already home.

A lengthy period of time out for the Frenchman will be a real blow to his hopes of being part of the France squad at this summer's World Cup in North America.

Ekitike's club and international team-mate Ibrahima Konate said this moment will be "very hard" for him. "I think it is bad," he told Amazon Prime.
