Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has confirmed that Adam Lallana will undergo a scan to determine the extent of his injury ahead of their clash with Southampton on Saturday.

The 28-year-old was forced from the field during the first half of England’s international friendly against Spain at Wembley on Tuesday.

There were no other serious concerns heading into the next Premier League encounter against Southampton on Saturday.

‘I would say 95 per cent is good news, but with Adam, we don’t know yet exactly,’ Klopp told the Liverpool website.

‘Of course, nobody comes off the pitch when they don’t feel anything and I’ve spoken to him already, he felt [something] but we couldn’t do a scan until now, so we have to wait for this.

‘As you can imagine, it will be close. The time until Southampton is short, so I don’t know. Hopefully, it is not too serious, but we have to wait.’

Liverpool will travel to St Mary’s Stadium to on Southampton in the Premier League on Saturday.

Kick-off has been set for 17:00.
