The club have been reluctant to put a hard date on his return, but the expectation is that he will only be back towards the latter stages of the campaign, if at all. Now Arne Slot, speaking in his pre-Fulham press conference, has revealed that the Brazilian shot-stopper is not yet ready for Saturday’s tie against Fulham: “We don’t get the player back yet, but Alisson is working hard to get his way back.

It has been hard for us to convert chances into goals and he’s been a goalscorer all his life. Slot had initially warned that his No.1 might only be back for the very last stretch of the season, but Alisson has since tried to calm fears by insisting he has not suffered a new setback and is targeting full training again towards the end of April.
