Liverpool striker suffers another injury setback
Danny Ings has been advised he will not return for Liverpool this season
DANNY INGS has revealed his hopes of playing again this season for Liverpool are over.
 
The 23-year-old was just starting to settle at Anfield and made his England debut before disaster struck.
The striker was dealt a cruel blow with a cruciate knee ligament injury, initially ruling him out for around six months.
However, it appears the initial prognosis was too optimistic and the former burnley man is now unlikely to feature at all this term.
 
"When I got the injury I said straight away I will play again before the season finishes," Ings told NBC Sports.
"But I think with the advice I've had of the surgeons and physios, I know they won't risk me and I don't want to risk it myself.
"This is all about the highs and lows of football. I was at the happiest point of my career and then, at the time of the injury, I felt like I was at my lowest point.
 
"I just felt like I got my foot in the door.
It is absolutely gutting because football has been my life
Danny Ings

"I was becoming established here at Liverpool, playing games and scoring goals, keeping my place in the team and had made my debut for England, then somebody took that all away from me.
"It is absolutely gutting because football has been my life. If I can't do what I love doing then it is like someone having their kids taken away from them.
"That is how I felt. I know that I am going to come back extremely strong."
