Liverpool’s injury crisis shows no sign of slowing after Alisson Becker was ruled out of their crunch Champions League clash with Ajax.
The goalkeeper is not in the Reds’ 20-man squad for tonight’s Group D fixture at Anfield, with Ireland U21 international Caoimhin Kelleher deputising against the Dutch champions in what will be his first Champions League start.
Liverpool say Alisson's absence is precautionary, due to a tight leg muscle, but they will hope, with fixtures coming thick and fast in December, that his absence is not a long-term one.
