Georginio Wijnaldum is expected to discover on Wednesday the full extent of the hamstring injury that has left him a major doubt for Liverpool’s match against Manchester United on Monday. He will be assessed by the club’s medical department upon his return to Melwood on Tuesday before being sent for a scan, but is already considered doubtful for the Premier League encounter with United at Anfield. Wijnaldum has been ever-present for Jürgen Klopp’s team in the Premier League this season and settled impressively in central midfield following his £25m summer transfer from Newcastle United. The in-form Lallana suffered a groin injury in the win at Swansea City that forced him to miss England’s World Cup qualifiers against Malta and Slovenia. Dejan Lovren and Nathaniel Clyne also suffered injuries at Swansea but will be fit for Monday.
