Klopp confirms Liverpool captain ready for Atletico Madrid

By our reporter On Mar 11, 2020 0

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has confirmed that Jordan Henderson is ready for their game against Atletico Madrid.

The England star is set to be involved, whether from the start or the bench, as the Reds face a do or die game.

They must overcome a 1-0 deficit to progress into the quarter finals, but have the chance to win at home to move on.

Klopp said during his pre-match press conference: “Hendo is ready but what we do with that, I don’t know… or maybe I know and I don’t say!”

Henderson has been absent with a hamstring problem that he suffered during the first leg in Spain.

His absence has been a big one for the Reds, who have lost two more games in all competitions since that defeat in Madrid.
