Liverpool's won't rush Alisson injury return

Alisson's rehabilitation from a calf injury has entered the next phase with the Liverpool goalkeeper doing outside drills during the international break.

The Brazil international has been sidelined since the Premier League opener against Norwich City, but stepped up his recovery at Melwood over the past week.

The 26-year-old has done extra strength work in the gym, but more promisingly, has been able to work on Melwood's pitches to sharpen his footwork, catching and passing.

Liverpool refuse to put a timescale on Alisson's return as they do not want to rush him back, but goalkeeping coach John Achterberg is happy with his progress.
