Liverpool Suffer Double Injury Blow in 12 Minutes

Alisson Becker's injury adds to Liverpool's fitness woes as he will miss the Chelsea match, with the goalkeeper having a history of lengthy recovery periods, coach confirmed.

  • On Tuesday, Liverpool FC suffered a 1-0 Champions League defeat to Galatasaray in Istanbul as goalkeeper Alisson Becker was forced off injured.
  • After a poor pass by Ibrahima Konate, Alisson went off making a save to deny Victor Osimhen, with no word yet on injury seriousness despite past long lay-offs in recent years.
  • Also, Liverpool lost striker Hugo Ekitike to injury in the second half, and with three points from two matches, Liverpool FC sits 16th in their Champions League group, Arne Slot said.
  • Alisson will miss Saturday's trip to Chelsea, and Liverpool manager Arne Slot said he hopes for good news on both Alisson Becker and Hugo Ekitike.
  • With squad fitness stretched, the Reds remain without young defender Giovanni Leoni after his ACL tear last week, while Arne Slot warned players cannot safely play three times 90 minutes in seven or eight days.
