Lang to have surgery for 'serious' thumb injury
"Galatasaray said Lang "suffered a serious cut to his right thumb and is scheduled to undergo surgery in Liverpool in the coming hours with our medical team present". The 26-year-old collided with the advertising hoardings in the 76th minute and he fell to the floor clutching his thumb after looking at the wound on his right hand."
"Following the match, a check-up at the hospital under the supervision of our medical team revealed that our player had a fracture in his right forearm, and a cast was applied. A decision regarding surgery will be made in the coming days after further evaluation."
"Lang appeared to be in agony and he was consoled by Liverpool's Alisson Becker and Virgil van Dijk as he was attended to by medical staff. The Netherlands international received oxygen before being taken off the field on a stretcher."
