Why Jordan Henderson is absent for Liverpool’s clash against Brentford

Jordan Henderson absence explained for Liverpool’s clash against Brentford.

Jordan Henderson misses Liverpool’s clash against Brentford today because of concussion.

The Reds skipper is not involved in the match-day squad in the capital. Henderson started both of Liverpool’s games after the break for the World Cup - a 3-1 win at Aston Villa and 2-1 defeat of Leicester City.

But Jurgen Klopp’s side will have to do without their skipper against Brentford this evening.
