Report: Injury update on Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson

Liverpool and England midfielder Jordan Henderson has picked up an injury on international duty.

The 31-year-old has departed the England camp and returned to Merseyside.

The severity of Henderson's injury is yet to be revealed.

England Football has confirmed that the midfielder requires “further assessment” on an undisclosed injury.

ANFIELD WATCH VERDICT

Henderson is an important player for Liverpool. There is a reason why the Englishman is the captain of the club.

Henderson has been in good form for the Reds so far this season. The 31-year-old is averaging a WhoScored player rating of 7.03 in the Premier League.

Therefore, we do hope that Henderson's injury does not rule him out of this weekend's Premier League clash against Arsenal at Anfield.

The match will kick-off at 05:30 pm on Saturday. You always want your best players available for the big matches.

We will just have to wait and see just how severe Henderson's injury is.
