Key Liverpool trio face late tests ahead of Tottenham clash due to international call of duty

Liverpool’s Brazilian trio face a race against time to be selected for the clash against Tottenham on 15th September, as per the Liverpool Echo

.

Roberto Firmino

, Alisson and Fabinho have been included in Brazil’s friendlies against the United States and El Salvador on 8th and 12th September respectively, as per the report.

The issue lies with the second game as it takes place on the east coast of America and starts at 1:30 AM BST.

The match against Spurs will kick-off 12:30 PM, meaning the three Brazilians could have only one training session before the all-important clash against our rivals.

Liverpool Echo adds that the Reds could hire a private jet to bring the stars home earlier. The report adds that Liverpool had resorted to such measures to bring Philippe Coutinho and Firmino back from international duty earlier.

The Reds had shared the costs of the chartered plane with Chelsea, Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain previously, as per the report.

The report claims that the cost for the Gulfstream jet being shared by four clubs was £30,000 each.

Alisson has been a big part of our success this season so far, with three clean sheets. Meanwhile, Firmino has done his bit for the attack without scoring a goal.

Fabinho is yet to start a game for the Reds since making his switch from Monaco and hopefully, we will see our strongest team line-up when we take on Spurs on 15th September.
