Rejected three times by his hometown club Yokohama F. Marinos as a teenager, Wataru Endo turned setback into fuel, earning his way from Shonan Bellmare's youth academy to captaining professional teams before the age of twenty, winning the AFC Champions League with Urawa Red Diamonds, leading the Bundesliga in tackles at VfB Stuttgart, and lifting trophies at Anfield.

  • Biography Flash Wataru Endo Injury Crisis Tears Surgery and the Fight to Save His Liverpool Legacy
    Apr 11 2026
    In the whirlwind world of Liverpool FC, Japanese captain Wataru Endo remains sidelined by that brutal ankle injury from February 11, when he was stretchered off during a rare start against Sunderland after trapping his foot defending a cross, according to WalkOn.com and Sports Mole reports. Liverpool manager Arne Slot confirmed successful surgery to implant a new ligament, with Endo eyeing a June return just in time for Japan's World Cup campaign, per Sports Illustrated and ESPN Africa previews ahead of yesterday's Fulham clash. That means his Premier League season is likely done, sparking whispers he may have kicked his last ball at Anfield, as Rousing The Kop speculated this week amid Liverpool's defensive woes.

    Endo got candid on Instagram, his official account @endowataru buzzing with fans marking his 50th Premier League appearance milestone before the injury hit. OneFootball captured his raw emotion: he admitted Liverpool supporters' messages brought him to tears, saying he was crying a little bit over the overwhelming support flooding his socials post-surgery. Even Liverpool Goals fanpage reposted his vivid recall of the moment the cross came in. Teammate Virgil van Dijk chimed in via LFCLive.net, gutted and sharing he had a similar injury, underscoring the long road back.

    No fresh public appearances or business moves in the past few days, but his absence looms large with Liverpool facing PSG in Champions League next week and the Merseyside derby, where he's officially ruled out per Sports Mole and ESPN. This injury saga could redefine his Reds legacy, potentially his Anfield exit as the club hunts midfield steel.
