Liverpool fans have expressed their delight with the news that Napoli forward Lorenzo Insigne will miss the crucial Champions League tie on Wednesday, according to Sky Sports.

The 28-year-old is a critical part of the way that Gli Azzurri play with wide wingers and a narrow midfield, but he will not be available for their tricky away tie at Anfield.

The game will be a repeat of their group stage decider from last season where the Reds came out on top 1-0, which is remembered for a breathtaking last-minute save from goalkeeper Alisson to deny Arkadiusz Milik.

Sky Sports revealed that an elbow injury will prevent Insigne from playing this time. He has been one of their most in-form players this season, scoring four goals and conjuring up six assists in 15 appearances for Napoli.

Supporters were pleased with the news and felt that they have more of a chance of getting something out of the game with the Italian not featuring.
