Harry Kewell limped out of our FA Cup final victory over West Ham, just after half time yesterday and a scan at Melwood this morning has revealed a tear in one of his groin muscles.
Although the injury is only expected to keep him sidelined for 2 to 3 weeks, the news will still be a concern for Aussie coach Gus Hiddink, whose teams first World Cup match comes against Japan on June 12th.
Liverpool spokesman Ian Cotton said: ‘We liased closely with the Australian national team medical staff and their physio actually accompanied our club doctor to the scan this morning.
‘That scan has shown Harry has torn one of his groin muscles.
It has been agreed that Harry will receive treatment at Melwood for the next 10 days before joining up wth his international teammates in Holland.
We expect him to be playing again within the next two to three weeks.’
