Who could replace Alisson in Liverpool goal?
Second-choice keeper Caoimhin Kelleher missed the Palace game due to illness, so Vitezslav Jaros was i💯ntroduced for his Liverpool senior debut for the closing stages.
The Irishman isn’t expected to be out for long and, should Alisson not be fit after the international break, he’ll likely be the one to de𒈔putise, as he has done to great effect in previous year✤s.
Kelleher was an important figure for Liv💮erpool last season, making 26 appearances in all competitions in wake of Alisson picking up a hamstrꦯing injury.
The Redꦰs first-choi🦋ce stopper has already missed two games this season with a similar issue.
