Alisson Making 'Steady Progress' in Injury Recovery, Says Liverpool Coach

Alisson is making "steady progress" in his recovery from a calf injury, but there is still no timescale on his return to action, according to Liverpool goalkeeping coach John Achterberg.

The Brazilian goalkeeper has been out of action since the opening day of the new Premier League season, when he had to be substituted in the first half of Liverpool's 4-1 win over Norwich City on August 9.

Initial reports indicated an absence of between four and eight weeks for the 26-year-old, who played every minute of Liverpool's remarkable 2018-19 Premier League campaign:
