Liverpool head coach Arne Slot has revealed that. Brazilian goalkeeper Alisson Becker is close to returning to the team. Expected before the end of 2024.

Alisson has been out of action for Liverpool since the 1-0 Premier League win at Crystal Palace on October 5. With Caoimhin Kelleher the regular starter UFABET

Slots confirm Alisson is close to a full return but will need to be fully fit to reclaim his place from the in-form Kelleher.”I think I made it clear a few weeks ago about our goalkeeper position.”

“We are waiting for Alisson to be fully fit because Caoimhin (Kelleher) is too good to play Alisson if he is only 50 per cent fit. That would not be good for Alisson and for the team.”

“He’s getting there. It might take a while, but he’s getting closer. He’ll be in goal before the end of December if things continue like this.”

“I always feel like I have to make big decisions about my lineup.”

“If you look at the line-ups for our last game against Man City, Darwin (Nunez) wasn’t picked, Curtis (Jones) wasn’t picked. Harvey Elliott wasn’t picked, Jarrell Quansah and one or two others.”

“It’s always a big decision you have to make as Liverpool manager because you have so many quality players.” Slot said.
