Daniel Sturridge doubtful for Liverpool's clash with Bournemouth after missing training |
Manager Jurgen Klopp is likely to give an update on Sturridge’s fitness at his press conference at lunchtime.
But the fact Sturridge has now been unable to train since before Klopp’s first game in charge against Tottenham 10-days ago casts doubt on his participation.
Sturridge hurt his knee following a training ground incident with Jordon Ibe 48-hours before the Tottenham match and was sent for a scan last Friday after fluid gathered around the joint.
He has yet to feature under Klopp missing the subsequent draws with Rubin Kazan and Southampton.
In his absence, Christian Benteke has returned from an injury of his own and scored an excellent header in the 1-1 draw with Southampton.
Both he and Roberto Firmino are in line to start against Bournemouth at Anfield.
