Liverpool might be without their primary goalkeeper, Alisson Becker, for a longer period. Fabrizio Romano reports that Arne Slot suggested during the pre-West Ham press conference that it is uncertain if Alisson will be fit for the upcoming match against Wolves.
In the meantime, Caoimhin Kelleher has taken over and will continue to replace the Brazilian.
How did Kelleher perform against Bournemouth?
The Irish goalkeeper delivered an impressive performance, keeping a clean sheet that contributed to Liverpool’s fourth shutout of the Premier League season and helped them climb to second place in the standings.
Slot commended Kelleher’s efforts, highlighting his importance in making crucial saves, particularly given the number of chances created by Bournemouth.
Other injury updates for Liverpool:
Harvey Elliott is still in a protective boot as he recovers from a fractured foot sustained during the international break in September.
Liverpool’s injury list is relatively manageable and could become even shorter if Alisson makes a swift return. Federico Chiesa may also see increased playing time in the Carabao Cup match against West Ham.
