Liverpool players Mo Salah and Andy Robertson were left stunned by the physical transformation of Jordan Henderson as the Reds returned for pre-season training.
The Liverpool squad were back to training on Tuesday as preparations for the 2023/24 season get underway, with new signings Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai spotted at the AXA Training Centre.
However, it seemed Henderson's physical appearance was the main talking point for Mo Salah and Andy Robertson. While their 33-year-old captain carried out assessments at the training ground, the pair commented on his appearance in glowing - albeit exaggerated - terms.
In a video uploaded by Liverpool on Twitter, Salah shouts: "Can you see this? My God" at Robertson, who joins in himself to highlight the off-season work Henderson has been putting in.
"Wow, what a body," Robertson said. "It’s all that boxing, isn't it? What a body!"
