Alisson was seen walking without a protective boot during Thursday’s Champions League group stage draw.
The Brazilian has been missing since picking up an injury at home to Norwich City on the opening weekend of the Premier League season.
He was named UEFA’s Champions League Goalkeeper of the Season at the draw in Monaco, following a superb first season at Anfield.
Some Liverpool fans were eagle-eyed in detecting that Alisson walked with no obvious limp, reacting to it on Twitter.

Read Liverpool Verdict
Alisson was a hugely influential player last season, highlighting why some regard him as the world’s best goalkeeper currently.
Although Liverpool have won every game without him in 2019/20, the drop down in quality with Adrian is huge, with all due respect to the Spaniard.
The Reds have been coy about when exactly Alisson will return, but they desperately need him back as soon as possible.
The Brazil No.1 is not expected to be back until after the upcoming international break, but the longer his absence lasts, the more detrimental it could be to Liverpool’s season.
