Injured Liverpool captain Fisk out for 10 days

Liverpool captain Grace Fisk, who withdrew from the England squad on Monday with a calf injury, will be out for the "next 10 days", says manager Gareth Taylor.

Speaking to Liverpool's club website, Taylor added that the 27-year-old defender's injury has "come at a really bad time" for the Reds.

Liverpool are next in action when they travel to Arsenal on Saturday (12:00 GMT), followed by a trip to Aston Villa five days later on 11 December and a visit to West Ham on 14 December.

"It's a frustrating one and we are quite limited in terms of options with Risa Shimizu still missing," he said.

"Lucy Parry will come into contention but she's on limited minutes in terms of playing 90 minutes, so we'll have to wait and see what we do at right-back."

Fisk has captained her side in all eight of bottom-of-the-table Liverpool's Women's Super League games this season.

She was named in manager Sarina Wiegman's original squad for the first time having been called in to the Lionesses pool during the October window because of Katie Reid's withdrawal.
