The 24-year-old limped out of training on Friday
and will miss Sunday's Premier League clash with
Hull City as he undergoes further assessment from
the club's medical staff
Liverpool have confirmed that striker Daniel
Sturridge will miss Sunday's clash with Hull City
after suffering an ankle injury in training.
Sturridge limped out of training on Friday will
undergo assessment from the club's medical staff
to determine the extent of the problem, with some
reports suggesting he has suffered ankle ligament
damage.
The news is a blow to boss Brendan Rodgers, who
had planned to start the 24-year-old alongside
Luis Suarez against the Tigers after revealing he
had trained "exceptionally well" this week.
"Liverpool Football Club can confirm Daniel
Sturridge will be assessed by the club's medical
staff today after the striker rolled his ankle in
training," a statement on the club's website reads.
"Sturridge returned to training at Melwood this
week; however, he sustained an ankle sprain which
will require further assessment."
