ALISSON has not made the squad for Liverpool’s game against Everton.
The sides are meeting tonight in a HUGE Merseyside derby at Anfield.
Alisson has not made the squad for Arne Slot’s first Merseyside derby at Anfield.
He joins the likes of Trent Alexander-Arnold and Conor Bradley on the injury list for the tie.
Liverpool’s number two Caoimhin Kelleher will step in for the Brazilian stopper for the clash.
SunSport can reveal why Alisson is not part of tonight’s squad.
Why is Alisson not playing for Liverpool?
Alisson is under concussion protocols, and therefore will not feature tonight for Liverpool.
The ‘keeper collided with Davinson Sanchez during Brazil’s game with Colombia in the international break.
He left Brazil camp early, and is still side-lined under protocols.
Alisson has been training with the Reds, but has to miss the game due to the protocols.
Arne Slot commented on the matter, saying yesterday: “Ali trained with us as well.
“The last check has to be made, I think that’s this afternoon after the session, [to determine] if he is available to play.”
