As first reported by , Brazil have already called up Weverton as Alisson's replacement. The Selecao's medical team contacted Liverpool after the Palace game and were told the Reds man could play no part in the upcoming games.

"But it’s very good that we won these games and it’s up to us to show ourselves in the big games as well. Unfortunately Ali won’t be with us in those matches I assume, if I saw how he walked off the pitch.”

Slot also praised Jaros, who was forced into action as Caoimhin Kelleher missed out through illness. "Really good," the Dutchman said. "He had a good season and he won the league and cup with the team [Sturm Graz] in Austria [last season].

"He wanted to go [back this season] and have playing time. We said at a club like this we need a good third goalkeeper as well. It was a nice moment for him to make his debut for Liverpool."
