Alisson has been ruled out of Liverpool’s Premier League match against Everton on Wednesday night.
The 32-year-old was forced off during Brazil’s 2-1 win against Colombia during the international break after clashing heads with Davinson Sanchez.
The Liverpool goalkeeper subsequently returned to the UK and missed Brazil’s 4-1 defeat to Argentina.
Brazil’s medical team revealed that Alisson had ‘minor complaints’ after the head collision and was substituted due to suspected concussion.
Alisson was pictured during Monday’s training session with Liverpool but he has failed to make the matchday squad for Everton’s visit to Anfield.
