Alexis Mac Allister injury update: Liverpool star 'training differently' while away with Argentina as fresh details emerge on adductor issue

Mac Allister's Thursday evening got off to the perfect start as he scored Argentina's opening goal in their World Cup qualifying win against Chile. But after the strong opening, he was taken off injured in the second half with what is confirmed an adductor issue, per Gaston Edul of TyC Sports.

Mac Allister was taken off but it has only been described as discomfort rather than anything more pressing, which will give Liverpool, Argentina and Mac Allister hope that he won't be sidelined by the injury. He has remained with Lionel Scaloni's squad but is "training differently" compared to the rest of the squad ahead of Argentina's game against Colombia.

Mac Allister's goal for Argentina was his first of the season, but he has been a vital part of Slot's more controlled style of play for Liverpool and has played every minute in the Premier League so far

He has remained with his national team with the hope that he can play a part in their game against Colombia. Beyond that, the midfielder will be assessed upon his return to Liverpool, with Slot's side taking on Nottingham Forest on Saturday.
