Liverpool captain Henderson: We will miss amazing Firmino

Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson says he'll be sorry to see Roberto Firmino leave the club.

There's hope the striker will be fit for an Anfield farewell against Aston Villa on Saturday.

"Bobby is a big part of the squad and he is an amazing guy," Henderson said.

"He will obviously be missed along with the other lads who are leaving as well. So it'll be tough to see them leave but we've got business to do now for the next couple of weeks. We've got two games left and then we can say the goodbyes after that.

"The focus is always just on the game first and foremost. We will be doing everything we can to win (against Villa) and then whatever happens after that happens. But winning the game is the most important thing, trying to get the three points on Saturday."
