Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson Becker has admitted to deliberately missing his club’s games to catch up World Cup 2026<\/a> this summer.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Brazil international is in Carlo Ancelotti’s squad for the tournament and you can follow the news of the World Cup live<\/a> as the five-time winners begin their campaign against Morocco on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Alisson has been brilliant for Liverpool and could be a key player for Brazil at this summer’s tournament, but Reds fans may not be cheering him on too much after hearing he was deliberately sitting out games for his club to prioritize the World Cup.<\/p>\n

Discussing his fitness, Alisson said he has no injury problems at the moment, having only missed the Liverpool games to focus on Brazil.<\/p>\n

“I’m 100%. Missing games for Liverpool was part of the plan to make sure I’m ready for the World Cup,” he told Estadao, as quoted and translated Sports Witness<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It’s unclear if these quotes could be mistranslated, which could be the case, but it certainly sounds like Alison admits to missing LFC games despite not actually being injured.<\/p>\n

The Merseyside giants had a decent back-up option in Giorgi Mamardashvili, so it wasn’t the worst in the world for them, but it just doesn’t paint the best picture of the environment at Anfield in a season that ended up being so disappointing.<\/p>\n

Of course, Alisson is only human, and who wouldn’t be determined to play at the World Cup, especially when it could be their last chance to do so?<\/p>\n

Discussing his ambitions for the tournament, he said: “I’m focused on this World Cup. I’m going to face it like it’s my last chance. I’ve learned that in life to live every day. I’m focused on this time. It’s a huge opportunity to live another World Cup.<\/p>\n

“It is a great honor for me to reach such a mark among goalkeepers who have participated in three World Cups.<\/p>\n

“I want to enter another group. I want to be among the World Cup champions. With the remaining 25 players called up. That’s my focus and the most important thing at the moment.”<\/p>\n
