Liverpool have given an update on the seriousness of club captain Jordan Henderson’s injury after he had to be carted off injured during Liverpool’s 2-0 defeat to Everton in the Merseyside derby last weekend.
The club released a statement on their website saying: ‘Liverpool can confirm Jordan Henderson has undergone an operation on the injury he sustained during last weekend’s Merseyside derby with Everton.
The 30-year-old is the latest in a long list of injuries at Liverpool and is now a big doubt for the European Championships this summer.
Henderson had been playing as a makeshift centre-back in Jurgen Klopp’s side due to Dutch powerhouse Virgil van Dijk and Joe Gomes both being out with long term injuries.
It’s not likely that either of the pair will return to full fitness by the end of the season which leaves Jurgen Klopp with his inexperienced new boys Ozan Kabak and Ben Davies as his centre-back options.
