Liverpool manager Jürgen Klopp has confirmed goalkeeper Alisson Becker’s calf injury will rule him out for “the next few weeks.”
The Brazilian was taken off in the first half of Friday’s 4-1 win over Norwich at Anfield, with Klopp confirming he will definitely miss Wednesday’s Super Cup final against Chelsea in Istanbul.
“[It’s] not too cool. It’s a calf injury which takes him obviously out for a while,” Klopp told Liverpool’s official website.
“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.”
