Henderson: 'I am desperate to be back when the results matter so much'

Jordan Henderson says he doesn't want to reveal too much in terms of his return from injury.

The skipper has said he is working with the best fitness specialists to expedite his return to full fitness.

Henderson added that it is important for him to be back with Liverpool now firmly in the business end of the season.

"I’m aware that there’s speculation about my fitness over the last couple of weeks," Henderson said, as reported by Anfield Watch.

"I don’t want to say too much because this club is about the team rather than individuals, but I am working as hard as ever to get back to playing.

“I’m fortunate to be able to work with some of the best fitness specialists in football and with their help I’m hopeful that I will be back sooner rather than later.

“My motivation is clear and simple: I am desperate to be back playing when results matter so much."

Jordan Henderson has been missing since late February and there is still no concrete date for the skipper's return.

Liverpool are due to play one of their biggest games of the season as they look to pull off a comeback against Real Madrid at Anfield to go through to the semi-finals of the Champions League.
