Alisson will return to Liverpool after being injured in Brazil’s 2026 World Cup qualifiers against Colombia.
The Reds goalkeeper was involved in the game, ending the game prematurely after a collision with opposition defender Davinson Sanchez.
Liverpool ranked top 12 points in the Premier League, with nine games remaining, and their first-choice first place will be part of their run-in.
Here is the latest news about Alison’s injury, including how long it might take him and what the Brazilian team doctors said about the incident.

Brazil v Colombia: What’s wrong with Arison?
Alisson left a mark on his head while challenging the ball with Sanchez, who spent six years at Tottenham before joining the current club Galatasaray in 2023.
After Sanchez was eliminated, players on both sides showed their attention, but the centre-back returned to his feet and was replaced by Carlos Cuesta, with about 15 minutes left.
Alisson is said to have shown signs of dizziness and was replaced by Bento, a teammate of five-time Ballon d’Or D’Or D’Or Cristiano Ronaldo at the Saudi club (Al-Nassr).
Real Madrid Livewire Vinicius Junior’s 99th minute goal gave Brazil a 2-1 victory in Brasilia, with Barcelona striker Raphinha slamming a sixth minute fine to put the hosts ahead and lead Liverpool’s Luis Diaz, equalizing in the four-minute match in the first half.

Alisson is injured: How long can he stay?
The medical program will require Alisson to suffer a concussion, but Brazilian doctor Rodrigo Lasmar is reportedly hoping that the 32-year-old can play a role in Selecao’s qualifiers ahead of CT and MRI scans on Wednesday (00:00 GMT).
“Arison is normal,” Rasmal said through Globo. “I believe you saw his image on the bench and after the game. He is completely normal now and has no complaints.
“He did not report any fainting or memory loss during the on-site treatment. He was always conscious and directed.
“We replaced him because he had minor complaints; he thought he was a little slow and had a chance of concussion. In this case of doubt, the suggestion was to replace the player.”

“If all the tests are negative and normal, we will do cognitive tests and evaluate the player. If everything is OK, we will do a series of observational tests over the next few days to see if he can travel with us.
“The first step is to perform the necessary tests and evaluations and monitor players for the next few days, which is the protocol.”
Will Arison play in Liverpool’s next game?
Liverpool announced Friday night that Alisson is returning to be evaluated by the club’s medical staff.
They hosted the highly improved Everton in their next game, with the second Merseyside derby of the season being held on April 2 (8 p.m. GMT).
This means that the Premier League champions of the Champions League and clubs will have about 12 days to recover from any injury before he can attack at Anfield.
Arison was injured
Alisson was replaced by a hamstring injury at Crystal Palace on October 5, missing 12 games in all games earlier this season.
He sat in two games with a thigh injury, Premier League top choice Caoimhin Kelleher and Liverpool’s top choice in two FA Cup campaigns this season.
Kelleher, the Republic of Ireland International, signed contracts until the end of the 2025/26 season, also played against PSV in the Champions League and four EFL Cup matches, including Liverpool’s defeat of Newcastle in the final.
Czech Vitezslav Jaros replaced Alisson as the bench and ended 11 minutes at Palace and won the EFL Cup with Brighton & Hove Albion.
