Liverpool suffer injury blow as Alisson Becker faces another MONTH out of action

Alisson Becker could be out of action for atleast the next month, after Brazil's international manager gave an update on the Liverpool goalkeeper.

Jurgen Klopp revealed the Brazilian No 1 would be out for the 'foreseeable' future ahead of Wednesday's clash with Luton, after he missed their 4-1 victory over Brentford.

It means he will miss their Carabao Cup final against Chelsea this weekend, with Caoimhin Kelleher set to step in.

Brazil manager Dorival Junior has now appeared to rule out the goalkeeper for at least the next month.

In an interview with TNT Sports as per Fabrizio Romano, he said Alisson would not return in time for their friendlies against England on March 23, and Spain three days later.

He also confirmed that Wolves star Matheus Cunha and Brighton's Joao Pedro would also miss the games.

By missing those games, it also means he could miss some huge games for Liverpool across all competitions.

In the Premier League, Liverpool are set to face Nottingham Forest, title rivals Manchester City and Everton at Goodison Park before the March international break.

There is no indication yet whether Alisson would be back in time for the first game after the break, which is against Brighton on March 31.

Liverpool are top of the table but have developed an injury crisis that threatens to derail their season.

Mohamed Salah is the latest injury scare despite returning following a hamstring issue against Brentford.

Curtis Jones, Diogo Jota and Darwin Nunez all came off during the game with injuries.

In total, 10 players could miss the clash with Luton - a list which also includes vice-captain Trent Alexander-Arnold and Dominik Szoboszlai.
