Alisson Becker could miss a month of action after sustaining a calf injury in Liverpool’s opening match against Norwich City.
The Brazilian shot-stopper went down in pain in the 39th minute after trying to clear the ball with positioning right and hurting his thigh.
He will now miss the trip to Istanbul to face Chelsea in the UEFA Super Cup but his absence has given Adrain an opportunity to come into the team and stalk his claim.
Saddened by Becker’s injury, Klopp said during his press conference: “There is actually nothing bad to say about the game apart from Ali’s injury. That is, of course, not good for us, but we have to see how serious it is and then we have to deal with it.
“It’s the calf and that’s it. He couldn’t carry on, that’s not a good sign. We have to see”
Focusing on Wesnesday clash with Chelsea in the UEFA Super Cup, Klopp added: “Wednesday {in the UEFA Super Cup}, he will not play- with all my experiences, i can say that already. He is injured, for sure, so we have to see how much”.
With him out, Klopp and Liverpool fans are hoping Adrain will step up and deliver.
