“Liverpool Hit with New Injury Worry Just Before Arsenal Clash”
“Fresh Injury Concerns Loom for Liverpool Ahead of Arsenal Showdown”
Liverpool will be without goalkeeper Alisson Becker until the November international break, but there are growing concerns that the Brazilian may be sidelined even longer than initially anticipated.
The 32-year-old has been a key player for Arne Slot, starting in six of the Reds’ first seven Premier League matches. However, he missed the recent clash against Chelsea after suffering a hamstring injury during the game against Crystal Palace before the international break. Initially, it was believed he would return by November, but new reports indicate he might not be back until December.
With a crucial week ahead for Liverpool, including matches against RB Leipzig and Arsenal, Football Insider has raised new concerns about Alisson’s condition. At Anfield, there are worries that the club will exercise extra caution due to the goalkeeper’s ongoing injury issues.
Over the past five seasons, Alisson has missed 40 matches due to injury, making him the most frequently injured goalkeeper in the Premier League, a situation Liverpool is keen to address.
Liverpool Examines Alisson Becker’s Injury History
Last week, Arne Slot confirmed that the club is investigating Alisson’s injury history in hopes of finding a solution before his return.
“It’s common for me, as my goalkeeper at Feyenoord also had muscle injury problems, though such cases are not typical,” the Dutch coach said, as reported by The Athletic.
“Indeed, we are exploring potential reasons for his injuries. It’s well-known that experiencing one injury increases the likelihood of others. We are being very cautious with him.”
Injuries remain a significant concern for Alisson, and despite being a crucial figure at Anfield, the 32-year-old may need to be wary of the impending arrival of Giorgi Mamardashvili next summer.
