Steven Gerrard has been ruled out of England's friendly with Denmark on Wednesday night.
The midfielder picked up a groin injury in Liverpool's 1-0 win at Chelsea and will not feature for Fabio Capello's side at the Parken Stadium.
England's vice-captain reported to his country's team hotel on Sunday night but the FA has confirmed that he has now returned to Merseyside.
Reds boss Kenny Dalglish had stated that he did not expect his skipper to play for the Three Lions.
"He has a groin problem," said Dalglish in the aftermath of Liverpool's victory at Stamford Bridge.
"He has to go so they can have a look at him but we've spoken to England and he'll not be playing."
