Liverpool manager, Jurgen Klopp, has confirmed Jordan
Henderson will miss their clash with Arsenal on Monday night with a thigh
injury.
Henderson was taken off at half-time during the 2-0 win over
Chelsea last weekend.
Klopp had been hopeful the England midfielder would return
in time for the visit of Arsenal.
However, Joe Gomez who missed the trip to Stamford Bridge
with a knee problem is set to return to training.
Addressing a press conference on Friday, Klopp provided an
update on Henderson and Gomez, as well as Joel Matip.
“Joe (Gomez) should be back today in training, that’s what
everyone has told me,” said Klopp.
“Billy the kid is back in training. Joel (Matip) not. Hendo
not yet, this game is for sure too early.”
Henderson’s absence may hand an opportunity to Thiago
Alcantara to make his first Liverpool start, after sealing his £20million
transfer from Bayern Munich last week.
