Liverpool’s midfield ace, Alexis Mac Allister, has picked up an adductor injury while playing for Argentina. This has left Liverpool fans and their manager, Arne Slot, anxiously waiting for updates on his condition.
Mac Allister played a crucial role in Argentina’s 3-0 victory over Chile in their World Cup qualifier, scoring the opening goal. However, he had to be substituted in the second half due to pain in his adductor muscle.
Although the injury has been described as “discomfort” rather than something more severe, there’s still concern about how it might affect his availability for upcoming games.
Mac Allister is continuing to train separately from his teammates as he prepares for Argentina’s next match against Colombia. Argentine journalist Gaston Edul reported that Mac Allister is dealing with an adductor issue and will be training on his own until Tuesday to try and recover in time for the game against Colombia.
Liverpool has had a mostly injury-free start to the season, but this situation shows how international play can sometimes bring unexpected risks. Slot will be hoping that Mac Allister’s injury doesn’t get worse and that he’s back to full fitness for Liverpool’s upcoming Premier League match against Nottingham Forest.
