Liverpool left concerned with Mane, Henderson injuries

Liverpool are waiting on Sadio Mane's fitness results after the star picked up a knock playing for Senegal against Togo.

The winger was taken off before half-time in the World Cup qualifier after hurting his ribs while challenging for a header.

The Reds are now waiting on the results of an X-ray to determine the extent of the injury.

Mane was crocked in Senegal's 1-1 draw in the Togolese capital Lome.

Coach Aliou Cisse put out a strong side despite the visitors having already qualified for March's play-offs, when Africa's five World Cup teams will be decided.

It has been a costly international break so far for Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp in terms of player injuries.

Skipper Jordan Henderson will miss England's upcoming clash with San Marino after undergoing a scan.
