Dominik Szoboszlai is set to undergo medical assessments on Monday to determine whether he will be fit to feature for Hungary during the November international break, after being forced off during Liverpool's 3-1 victory over Crystal Palace.

The Hungarian midfielder was substituted after 69 minutes against the Eagles with a knee complaint, in what was his first Premier League appearance since recovering from a hamstring injury. He had initially played on with strapping around the joint following treatment shortly before the interval.

Andoni Iraola had acknowledged after the final whistle that Szoboszlai may be required to withdraw from international duty as a consequence of his latest injury setback.

The Hungarian Football Federation have since confirmed that their national captain will face a series of tests before any decision is reached regarding his participation in the upcoming break.

An official statement released on social media read: "(Dominik Szoboszlai) who was substituted in the 69th minute of Liverpool FC's match yesterday, is undergoing tests today, Monday, following the usual protocol in such cases. We will, of course, keep the public informed of developments as soon as possible."

Iraola provided an update on Szoboszlai's condition following the full-time whistle at Selhurst Park, conceding that both the Reds and Hungary will need to handle the midfielder's fitness with considerable care going forward. "Dom definitely wasn't 100% in the second half," said the Liverpool head coach.

"Let's see. The last thing we need now is to lose players in the international games.

"In the last international break we lost three very important players in Alex (Isak), Cody (Gakpo) and Dom. So now I'm praying – it's the last thing we need.

"I think Dom extended the knee a little bit. It was fine but not 100%. He has to be careful to see if he can play for the international team or not.

"I hope we are in a better place in two weeks. I know Dom will do everything to go as he loves to play for the national team, but he wasn't 100% when he finished the game.

"I suppose they will have to analyse, the medical staff, and see what it is. I know what I want, but I also have to understand the national teams.

"I'm sure that Dom, if he is fine he will want to go, but I'm not sure if he's going to be fine."

Nevertheless, Szoboszlai made no mention of the knock when posting to Instagram following the match, as he informed fans he would, 'See them soon'.

"Good way to head into the break," he posted. "See you soon, Reds."
