Liverpool Fans Fume as Alisson Admits Skipping Club Matches to Focus on World Cup

Alisson Becker has come under fire from Liverpool supporters after admitting he missed key late-season matches to prepare for the World Cup. The goalkeeper sat out nine of the final ten games due to a hamstring injury. Despite an expected comeback earlier, he only returned for the season finale against Brentford. The 33-year-old has struggled with fitness, never featuring in more than 35 matches across each of his last three campaigns at Anfield. Speaking ahead of Brazil’s opening World Cup game, Alisson said he deliberately stayed out of some fixtures to be fully fit for his national team. Many fans have taken to social media, questioning who covered his wages while Liverpool fought for Champions League qualification.
