Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson Becker has returned to the UK after suffering a head injury while playing for Brazil. The goalkeeper was involved in an horrific collision with Colombia defender Davison Sanchez.

Alisson was substituted in the 78th minute with a suspected concussion.

Brazil team doctor Rodrigo Lasmar said afterwards: "Becker suffered a trauma to the head region, he \[has\] a suspected concussion. Now we will do all the CBF protocol, it will undergo recommended imaging tests, a computed tomography, then a resonance with diffusion.

“If all the tests are normal, we’ll follow up and do a cognitive test. And then we will evaluate the player. In the possibility that everything is normal, we will make a sequence of observations in the coming days. Today, we will do the tests, all the necessary evaluations.

“Alisson is normal, with no complaints. He reported no fainting and no memory loss. He thought it was a little slower. In this complaint, the recommendation is the replacement of the player.”
