Liverpool confirms Conor Bradley will be ruled out for the rest of the season due to serious ligament injury in his right knee..

Liverpool confirmed on their official website on Sunday that Northern Ireland international right-back Conor Bradley has suffered a serious ligament injury in his right knee and will be ruled out for the rest of the season.

According to Liverpool's official statement, Bradley will undergo surgery on his injury in the coming days and will then remain at the AXA Training Centre to actively participate in rehabilitation.

At this stage, the club cannot confirm how long Bradley will be sidelined due to the injury, but will not set a specific return date.

Meanwhile, the Football Association (FA) has also confirmed that Arsenal winger Gabriel Martinelli, who violently threw the ball at Bradley and shoved him after the injury, will not be subject to further punishment.

The Football Association (FA) said that since Martinelli has admitted that he acted impulsively, did not realize Bradley was injured, lost his temper, and he has apologized to Bradley. Therefore, the authorities have decided not to impose further punishment on the Brazilian international winger.

However, most Liverpool fans are dissatisfied with the FA's decision. Many Liverpool fans believe that regardless of whether Martinelli's outburst was truly impulsive, it was incomprehensible and could not be accepted simply with an "unintentional" statement and an apology.

The devastating news of Bradley's season-ending injury is a further blow to the Premier League champions, who are already plagued by injuries and have struggled with form this season.

Bradley suffered a season-ending injury in the second minute of stoppage time during Liverpool's match against Arsenal. While clearing the ball in his own half under pressure from Martinelli, he pulled his right knee.

After Bradley fell to the ground in pain, Martinelli not only threw the ball at him but also suddenly shoved the defender. His actions, which could have led to a more serious injury like a torn anterior cruciate ligament for Bradley, drew fierce criticism.

His behavior immediately provoked protests from Liverpool players, escalating into a physical altercation. Ultimately, Martinelli received a yellow card for his reckless actions.
