The England international had to be substituted after only 25 minutes and, so far, the extent of the damage is unknown. Should the strain rule him out for more than a few weeks and Benitez may be reluctant to sell Alonso - the Spaniard may now be needed for cover. Likewise, any deal for Gareth Barry may now need to be hurried, so Liverpool's start to the new term can get off to the right start.
It is certain the former Champions League winner will not be risked at Anfield on Friday, as Liverpool take on Italian side Lazio.
Liverpool emerged victorious in the friendly against Valerenga after a Xabi Alonso long-range solitary goal.
希望只係小事，但看來對Lazio佢就未必會出啦 |
