The goalkeeper missed Wednesday’s Merseyside derby win over Everton following his head injury on Brazil duty over the international break.

Asked whether Alisson would be ready to return against Fulham, Arne Slot said on Friday: “With Ali, it is simple: it is a concussion and you have to tick all the boxes. The moment he does, he will be in goal. The moment he doesn’t, we are following the protocol.”

Should Alisson again be ruled out, Caoimhin Kelleher will keep his place in goal.

Curtis Jones could continue at right-back after impressing there against Everton, though Conor Bradley could return.

Bradley is back in training after a hamstring injury and is nearing a return to action, having been out since February.

Slot said: “Conor, we have to wait and see if he is ready to be with the squad for Sunday.

“Then of course Curtis is an option [at right-back] because he did well, but I think Jarell [Quansah] did well a few times in that position also. Let's wait and see which decision we make.”

Slot confirmed that Liverpool did not pick up any fresh injury issues against Everton, with Alexis Mac Allister expected to be available despite being on the end of a heavy challenge from James Tarkowski.
