EPL: Klopp gives worrying update on goalkeeper Alisson Becker

Liverpool goalkeeper, Alisson Becker, is set to be out for “the next few weeks” with a calf injury he suffered in the Reds’ 4-1 victory over Norwich on Friday, according to manager Jurgen Klopp.

The Brazil international came off in the 39th minute of the match, after slipping and holding his calf.

Although he waved off the stretcher, Alisson still needed assistance from the team’s trainers to come off the pitch at Anfield.

“[It’s] not too cool. It’s a calf injury, which takes him obviously out for a while.

“I don’t want to make now [an] exact prognosis on when he will be back but it will not be Wednesday for sure, so now then we have to see. It takes a while, it takes a couple weeks for sure, and we have to see.

“I saw already like ‘six weeks’ and stuff like this, but Ali was not a lot injured in his career so I would like to wait a little bit to see how he develops in that process now, but he is not in for the next few weeks,” Klopp told Liverpoolfc.com on Monday.
