Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has said that Jordan Henderson is ready to play against Antonio Conte’s Tottenham Hotspur at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the Premier League on Sunday, as quoted in The Liverpool Echo.
Klopp has said that England international midfielder Henderson was involved in Liverpool training as normal on Thursday.
The £20 million midfielder (The Guardian) did not play for Liverpool against Napoli at Anfield in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday evening.
Liverpool, though, will be without James Milner against Tottenham due to concussion protocol.

Klopp said: “Henderson is available. Trained yesterday as normal. Had a little thing but serious enough not to be involved on Tuesday.”
Boost for the Reds
In our view, Jordan Henderson’s availability for Liverpool against Tottenham Hotspur in North London is a boost to the Reds’ chances of winning the Premier League game.
Henderson is one of the best midfielders in the Liverpool team and is a very senior and experienced player.
Tottenham will not be easy to win against in North London, and Liverpool will need the quality and experience of Henderson to pick up all three points at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Both Tottenham and Liverpool are aiming to finish in the Premier League top four this season.
