After suffering an injury against Crystal Palace, goalie Alisson could be out of the picture "for a few weeks," according to Liverpool manager Arne Slot. Alisson, 32, left the game during the 79th minute following seemingly tearing his hamstring during a clearance attempt. He has since been excluded from Brazil's team for their forthcoming World Cup qualifying matches.
Vitezslav Jaros made his Liverpool debut as Caoimhin Kelleher was ruled out due to illness. The Reds prevailed 1-0 despite a meek effort from Eberechi Eze. The Liverpool manager spoke to BBC Match of the Day as he said, "With Alisson it is clear he will be out for maybe a few weeks."
He said, "Maybe this is something the FA should look at - if you play Wednesday evening why do we have an early kick-off in an away game? Or they have to look at me and rotate all my players, maybe it is also bad luck, I don't know.
The former AS Roma goalkeeper said, "The positive thing is that Jaros did really well last season when on loan. He was champion and won the cup. He wanted to play desperately. At this club we need three good goalkeepers. He was outstanding today."
Liverpool's trip to Crystal Palace was scheduled to begin at 12:30 BST on Saturday, but they had a short turnaround after their Champions League match on Wednesday.
Alisson removed from the Brazil squad for upcoming International break
Alisson, the 2018 transfer to Liverpool, missed two matches last month due to a hamstring strain. Later, the Brazilian football federation announced that the players are missing their matches against Peru and Chile and that Weverton of Palmeiras would be starting in his stead. It is being assumed that Ederson would start in the forthcoming matches.
A statement from CBF said, "The national team's medical department contacted the English club and was informed that he would not be able to play in both matches,"
