Liverpool has provided an update surrounding the condition of Ben Doak.
The former Celtic youngster was involved in a nasty head collision during the Reds' afternoon UEFA Youth League clash with Sporting CP.
The 17-year-old appeared to collapse to the floor seconds after jumping up for a header.
Medics spent around seven minutes attending to the Scottish starlet, as they urgently acted after the knock with an opponent.
Doak was thankfully able to get back to his feet after receiving on-field treatment.
However, the attacker was unable to continue and was subbed off in the quarter-final tie.
Now, Liverpool has moved to alleviate any fears over Doak's injury.
U21s head coach Barry Lewtas said: "Ben is okay. He obviously couldn't continue but our medical staff got to him quickly.
"He was on the pitch at the end with the lads and we will keep him closely monitored."

The Ayrshire lad moved to Liverpool last year from Celtic's academy.
He has been in superb form for the Anfield side's young guns, scoring four goals and notching as many assists in the UEFA Youth League.
His clear talent and hard work have earned the Scot a debut in the Reds' first team as well.
Meanwhile, Falkirk captain Stephen McGinn has offered a hint about the date of this season's Scottish Cup semi-finals.
Rangers will take on Celtic, while the Bairns will take on Inverness Caledonian Thistle at the national stadium.
Both games are set to be crackers, but it still remains to be seen what fixture will take place on the Saturday and Sunday of the semi-final weekend.
