Picking up some sort of injury in his side’s 5-0 win over Heerenveen after his manager had made all five subs at his disposal, Calvin Bassey had to come off to let his team finish the game with 10-men.
This immediately led to a worry ahead of the Liverpool game in the Champions League, as the centre-back is seen as a key piece to try and stop Jürgen Klopp’s side.
However, if Voetbal International, relayed by Soccer News, are to be believed, the player should be fine to face the Reds on Tuesday.
VI, though, add a bit more, saying the ‘medical staff agreed’ and Bassey ‘is on his way’ to Anfield to face Liverpool in the Champions League.
That will be a boost for Ajax, who will want continue their good European form after their 4-0 win over Rangers and take that confidence into the game against Klopp’s men.
Down their end, Liverpool’s last game was a 4-1 loss against Napoli in the Champions League, which they will want to seek revenge on, with the game against the Eredivisie side their first opportunity to do so.
