Liverpool manager Arne Slot has provided a promising update on the recovery of goalkeeper Alisson Becker, who has been sidelined due to injury.
Speaking to reporters ahead of Liverpool’s upcoming fixtures, Slot confirmed that the Brazilian shot-stopper is making steady progress and is expected to return to action before the end of December.
Slot reassured fans with his comments, stating, “Alisson is getting there, it might take a few more days, but he’s getting closer and closer. Our plan is for Alisson to be in goal before the end of December.”
The manager’s remarks highlight Liverpool’s careful approach to the player’s rehabilitation, prioritizing his full recovery over a rushed return.
Alisson’s absence has been keenly felt by Liverpool, as his experience and leadership from the backline are crucial to the team’s defensive stability.

However, Slot has been clear about the club’s long-term reliance on Alisson, emphasizing the need to bring him back only when he is fully fit.
“There’s no rush,” Slot added. “We’ve been fortunate with Caoimhin stepping up and doing a fantastic job, and that gives us the flexibility to ensure Alisson’s return happens at the right time.”
Liverpool faces a demanding schedule in the coming weeks, with high-stakes Premier League and European fixtures.
Alisson’s potential return before Christmas could provide a significant boost to the squad as they push to maintain their position in the league standings and advance in continental competitions.
Fans have eagerly awaited the return of one of the world’s best goalkeepers, whose presence between the posts is seen as pivotal to Liverpool’s success.
The Brazilian international is renowned for his reflexes, composure, and ability to organize the defense, qualities that have been instrumental in Liverpool’s recent campaigns.
As December unfolds, all eyes will be on Liverpool’s training updates to see when Alisson resumes full participation.
While the team has managed in his absence, Slot’s measured optimism reflects the high expectations for Alisson’s impact upon his return.
With the manager confirming the goalkeeper’s likely comeback this month, Liverpool supporters can look forward to seeing their star goalkeeper back in action soon.
