Lallana ruled out of Watford game

Jurgen Klopp has officially ruled Adam Lallana out of this weekend’s game against Watford.

Speaking at his pre-match press conference, as reported by David Lynch, Klopp revealed that a ‘minor thing’ has ruled the Englishman out of the game against the Hornets.

It had been suggested that Lallana was a doubt for the game and Klopp has now confirmed the news.

The Liverpool manager was unable to a timeframe on the player’s return and it is yet to be seen if he could feature in the squad to face Paris Saint-Germain on Wednesday night.

While the injury does not appear to be a serious one, it is another blow for Lallana, who has struggled so badly with his fitness in recent months.

It follows the midfielder making only his second Premier League start of the season against Cardiff at Anfield.

Should Lallana not return in time for the PSG meeting, he will be keen to get back to full fitness ready for the Merseyside derby that takes place early December.
