Alisson Out of Liverpool Champions League Clash After Training Ground Injury

Alisson missed the Champions League match after training discomfort; backup Giorgi Mamardashvili has kept two clean sheets in 10 starts, Liverpool said.

  • On Mar 9, 2026, Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson Becker did not travel to Istanbul for the UEFA Champions League round-of-16 first leg against Galatasaray after sustaining a problem in training.
  • Following a Monday training session at the AXA Training Centre, Alisson felt minor discomfort, prompting Liverpool medical staff to decide against risking him for the trip to Istanbul.
  • Giorgi Mamardashvili, Georgian goalkeeper, is likely to deputise for Alisson after previously coming on as a substitute at Galatasaray and making 10 starts since arriving in the summer.
  • Other selection notes showed Federico Chiesa missing training while Alexis Mac Allister was forced off with a knee issue but trained before flying out with the Liverpool travelling squad.
  • Having played the full match in Wolverhampton on Friday, Alisson was sidelined after Monday training, missing his tenth match this season.
