Henderson out with broken foot – reports
Liverpool midfielder Jordan Henderson has broken a bone in his right foot during training and will be out for up to eight weeks, Press Association Sport reports.
Henderson, 25, had just returned to training after travelling to the United States for treatment on a troublesome heel injury.
The midfielder has not featured for Liverpool since August and had been expected to return to the side when the club host Norwich City on Sunday.
Very disappointed and frustrated with the injury setback but will work hard to be back as quickly as possible
