The Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson has returned to Merseyside after sustaining a “suspected concussion” in Brazil’s World Cup qualifying win over Colombia.
The 32-year-old was forced off in the 78th minute after colliding with the former Tottenham defender Davinson Sánchez in Brasília. After the game, the Brazil team doctor Rodrigo Lasmar said Alisson would undergo assessment for concussion and Liverpool have confirmed he has since left South America to come home: “Alisson is travelling back to Merseyside and will undergo assessment from the Reds’ medical staff.”
