Jordan Henderson has revealed he is a chance of being passed fit for the Europa League final on May 18.

The Liverpool captain is currently sidelined by a knee injury he suffered in the quarter-final against Borussia Dortmund last month, and although he was ruled out for eight weeks, is already back in training with the view to forcing his way into the team for the final against Sevilla at St Jakob-Park in Basel.

"I'm hoping it will be sooner rather than later. I'm doing everything I can to get back fit as quickly as possible," Henderson told Sky Sports.

"I've had a good week so far, so hopefully I can have another good week and see where I am at the end of that. I'm being very positive, I'm working very hard and hopefully it's sooner rather than later.

"That [Europa League final] would be the main priority for me. It would be huge just to be involved and I'd love to be a part of that if I could.

"At the same time I've got to make sure that my knee is right because I don't want to do myself further damage."

Henderson added: "The injury hasn't come at a great time for me but it doesn't really make a difference - it's about the [Liverpool] team and the cup final.

"Whether I am involved or not, I am hoping we put on another good performance and win a trophy."
