Kevin Stewart’s season is over after the Liverpool midfielder had surgery on a hernia.

The 23-year-old went under the knife last Friday and won’t be available for the rest of the campaign.

Stewart has had to settle for playing under-23s football since his last senior outing in the FA Cup tie with Plymouth in mid-January.

He faces an uncertain future having failed to force his way into Jurgen Klopp’s plans during the second half of this season.

Liverpool snubbed interest in Stewart from a number of clubs including Swansea City, West Brom, Brighton, Newcastle and Aston Villa during the winter window.

However, they always vowed to re-assess the situation this summer and he could depart in search of more regular first-team football.

Stewart, who signed a new five-year deal last November, has made 20 appearances for the Reds since arriving on a free transfer from Tottenham in 2014/

His chances have been limited this term with just four starts and five substitute outings in all competitions.
