Jordan Henderson reportedly did not travel to Spain with his teammates and is set to miss Liverpool's match with Real Madrid in the Champions League round of 16 on Wednesday night due to illness.
The midfielder started the first leg at Anfield three weeks ago, a match which Los Blancos won 5-2, giving themselves a massive advantage heading into Wednesday's contest at the Bernabeu.
Henderson has been a regular starter in a changeable Reds midfield this season, appearing in 23 Premier League matches for Jurgen Klopp's side.
According to The Athletic, Henderson will miss the crucial clash at the Bernabeu on Wednesday night due to illness, joining a host of first-team players who are currently unavailable.
The report also claims that the England international did not fly with his teammates on Tuesday afternoon to Madrid, and that the 33-year-old was absent from the squad's training session at Kirkby earlier in the day.
Liverpool face the assignment of overturning a three-goal deficit if they wish to reach the quarter-finals of this season's Champions League, with Carlo Ancelotti's men unbeaten on home soil in La Liga this term.
