And Klopp reckons his defender will be sidelined until ‘at least’ the international break.
"Robbo now is not 100%. [He felt something] very late, 93rd or whatever minute - actually he felt it the next day only," said Klopp today.
"He is out for at least, I would say, after the international break."
Robertson captained Scotland in their 3-0 defeat to Ireland at Aviva Stadium in June.
Stephen Kenny will name his Ireland squad on Thursday ahead of the Nations League double-header with the Scots and Armenia.
