BRENDAN RODGERS will discover today if Pepe Reina has joined his list of Kop crocks.

It was confirmed yesterday striker Fabio Borini could be out until January.

Now Reina will be assessed by Anfield medics this morning to see if he will miss the visit of Reading on Saturday.

The Liverpool goalkeeper felt his hamstring tighten during the warm-up, ahead of Spain’s draw with France on Tuesday.

If Reina has suffered a full tear — and initial hopes are it is merely a ‘tweak’ — it would be a huge blow to the Reds.

Boss Rodgers is already without long-term absentees Lucas and Martin Kelly.

Borini fractured his metatarsal on duty for Italy’s Under-21s and needs an operation.
