**Alisson Becker Faces Six-Week Injury Setback** Liverpool's hopes have taken a significant hit as goalkeeper Alisson Becker is set to miss six weeks of action due to injury. The Brazil international sustained the injury during a Champions League match against Galatasaray, leaving the pitch in the 56th minute after making a crucial save from Victor Osimhen, who later scored the only goal of the match. Alisson was replaced by Giorgi Mamardashvili, a highly-rated summer signing, which may provide some reassurance to fans. However, Alisson has been a standout performer for Liverpool this season, making his absence particularly concerning. The timing of the injury is critical, as Liverpool faces a demanding schedule in October and November. The team is set to play eight matches during this period, including two key Premier League fixtures against title rivals Manchester City and Chelsea. Additionally, they will compete in two Champions League matches, one of which is a high-stakes encounter against Real Madrid at Anfield. In the Carabao Cup, Liverpool will also meet Crystal Palace, a team that has already defeated them twice this season. Former player Ally McCoist commented on the situation, stating, “That’s a blow. I think he’s the best goalkeeper out of all of them, so that will be a blow. I think him and Virgil van Dijk are the two players they can’t do without.” He added, “Mo Salah is obviously out of this world, one of the best players on the planet, but I think Van Dijk and the goalkeeper are vital for them.” Liverpool's injury woes do not end with Alisson. The team also lost Hugo Ekitike, another key player, during the same match. Manager Arne Slot addressed the injuries, saying, “It's never positive if you go off like this. You can be sure he [Alisson] is not playing Saturday [against Chelsea]. I wasn't really thinking that we had an injury, but Hugo felt something. He said he couldn't continue, so we had to take him off. Let's see how he is for the weekend.” As Liverpool prepares for a challenging few weeks ahead, the impact of Alisson's absence will be closely monitored by fans and analysts alike. Breaking news.
