Liverpool handed major injury boost as Jordan Henderson England decision made

Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson has been added to England's squad for the upcoming Nations League games against Italy and Germany, despite missing the Reds' last three matches through injury.

Henderson, 32, suffered a hamstring injury midway through the second-half of the 2-1 win over Newcastle United in August and subsequently missed the fixtures against Everton, Napoli and Ajax for Jurgen Klopp's side.

However, it has now been confirmed that Henderson joined up with the Three Lions squad at their St George's Park training base on Monday evening after passing a number of fitness tests, just days after Manchester City midfielder Kalvin Phillips withdrew from the squad due to an ongoing shoulder problem.
