Impact Henderson won't feature in the initial few weeks of the season, but his exact recovery timeline remains in doubt, so it's unclear when he'll be able to make his first appearance for Chelsea following his transfer from Brentford. The veteran midfielder got hurt during the World Cup, even though he barely saw action in the international competition and has failed to take part in a club game since May 24. He'll likely serve as a bench asset as soon as he returns, offering backup behind Moises Caicedo and Romeo Lavia.

Undergoes successful surgery Henderson underwent surgery after breaking his forearm while celebrating England's 3-2 win over Mexico, ruling him out for the remainder of the World Cup, according to Blick.

Impact Henderson had featured for just six minutes at the tournament prior to the injury, appearing in the group stage win over Panama, and his freak celebration injury now removes an experienced option from England's midfield rotation for the knockout rounds. It remains unclear whether he will travel with the squad to Miami for the quarterfinal against Norway, though his involvement for the rest of the tournament is over regardless. His recovery timeline is expected to extend well beyond the World Cup given the surgical procedure required.

Jordan Henderson Set For Surgery After Freak Injury After England's Win Over Mexico

Wrist surgery ends tournament Henderson (wrist) was ruled out for the remainder of the World Cup after requiring surgery on a wrist injury suffered during Sunday's 3-2 win over Mexico, according to TheAthletic.

Impact Henderson's tournament came to an unfortunate end following a freak injury sustained during post-match celebrations after England's round-of-16 victory. The midfielder was stretchered off and taken to a hospital in Mexico City after landing awkwardly, and he subsequently did not return with the squad to its training base. His absence removes an experienced option from the midfield rotation ahead of the knockout rounds. Henderson had featured as a veteran presence throughout the competition and now faces a recovery period that will extend beyond the World Cup.

Bench option Henderson (undisclosed) is on the bench for Saturday's match against Manchester City.

Impact Henderson is not going to miss any more time after it was already deemed he was fit for play, as the midfielder resides on the bench Saturday. After four matches out in a row, they are likely taking his return cautiously, as he could return to a starting role next contest.

Impact Henderson has been able to train this week after an undisclosed injury left him out of the last few contests, with the midfielder cleared for play. With Vitaly Janelt still ramping up fitness, this is a major return for the squad, as they add back another midfielder. He started in his past four appearances and could return to that spot immediately Saturday, recording 21 starts in 29 appearances this season.

Not an option Saturday Henderson (undisclosed) is ruled out for Saturday's clash against West Ham.

Impact Henderson has been unable to pass his late fitness test despite manager Keith Andrews describing him as pretty close and expressing optimism about his progress following his return to grass training. The midfielder has started 21 of his 29 appearances this season, making his continued absence a notable blow for the Bees heading into the West Ham fixture. His availability for the coming fixtures will be monitored closely, with the coach having indicated the progress made in recent days gives reason for optimism ahead of the final stretch of the season.

Impact Henderson is eyeing a return as the club welcomes West Ham on Saturday, with the midfielder first training on grass and now a late call, needing to pass some fitness testing to play. This could mean the return of two valuable midfielders to end the season, as Vitaly Janelt (foot) is also questionable. He has started in 21 of his 29 appearances, so expect him to push for the start if he is considered fully fit.
