Liverpool defender Conor Bradley will miss the rest of the season with a significant knee injury sustained in Thursday's goalless draw at Arsenal.

Bradley will undergo surgery in the coming days to repair bone and ligament damage, but it is not an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury.

Bradley will miss Northern Ireland's World Cup play-off tie with Italy in March, but it is unclear whether he would be fit in time for this summer's World Cup should Michael O'Neill's side qualify through the play-offs.
