Alisson Suffers Injury in Champions League Defeat to Galatasaray

Liverpool, October 1, 2025 – Liverpool will be without first-choice goalkeeper Alisson Becker for Saturday’s Premier League clash with Chelsea after he picked up an injury in the Champions League defeat to Galatasaray. The Brazilian was forced off in the second half following a save against Victor Osimhen, with early indications suggesting he will not recover in time for the weekend. The Reds also face concerns over forward Hugo Ekitike, who was substituted after feeling discomfort while chasing a ball and is set for further medical assessment. Both setbacks come as a blow to Arne Slot’s side ahead of their visit to Stamford Bridge.
