Liverpool head coach Arne Slot has revealed that Alisson is a doubt for the side’s upcoming Premier League clash with Bournemouth due to a muscle injury.

The 31-year-old goalkeeper complained of a muscle issue prior to the win but played through the discomfort as goals from Ibrahima Konate, Virgil van Dijk and Dominik Szoboszlai got Liverpool’s European campaign off to the perfect start at the San Siro.
Caoimhin Kelleher will likely deputise for Alisson between the sticks should the Brazilian be ruled out of the Reds’ encounter with Andoni Iraola’s Bournemouth at Anfield on Saturday afternoon.
Alisson was sidelined for 12 days with a muscular problem midway through last season before a hamstring injury saw the shot-stopper miss almost two months of action from mid-February through to April.
‘Alisson is a doubt to see if he can train today and if he can?t, then he will probably not play,’ Slot told reporters at his pre-match press conference this morning.
