In a recent development from Liverpool FC’s pre-season activities, first-choice goalkeeper Alisson Becker has officially become the third squad member to exit their ongoing pre-season tour in Japan. The Brazilian international has reportedly traveled back home due to personal reasons, making him unavailable for the club’s final fixture of the tour. His absence was evident as he did not participate in the Reds’ open training session in Tokyo on Tuesday. Despite his temporary withdrawal, Alisson is expected to rejoin the team upon their return to the United Kingdom. This departure comes at a crucial phase of pre-season preparations, where match fitness and squad cohesion are pivotal for the upcoming campaign. Earlier in the week, Joe Gomez was the first to leave the camp following a complaint of Achilles discomfort. The English defender is currently undergoing rehabilitation at the club’s AXA Training Centre located in Merseyside. Soon after, Luis Diaz became the second exit from the squad after traveling to complete a £65.5 million transfer to Bundesliga giants, Bayern Munich. This high-profile move signals a major change in Liverpool’s attacking lineup, with Diaz’s departure being one of the most talked-about transfers of the summer. The club’s pre-season journey has been marked by unexpected exits, and while fans will miss Alisson’s presence on the pitch, his quick return is anticipated as Jurgen Klopp continues to reshape the squad ahead of the 2025/2026 Premier League season.
