Steven Gerrard has been sent home from Liverpool’s training camp in Switzerland after sustaining a groin injury.
The midfielder sat out Liverpool’s win over Lucerne earlier this week and it has today been revealed that he was carrying the injury. Gerrard is expected to be sidelined for around 10 days, missing the clubs next friendly with Wisla Krakow today, as well as next week’s fixture with Hertha Berlin in Germany.
The midfielder will be a huge favourite with fantasy managers going into the season but this “minor” injury certainly suggests that we need to exercise some caution before spending the significant amount of cash required to buy in the Liverpool man. I’ll keep you posted on his progress.
