Flamengo's Alisson Becker is set to miss the rest of the season after suffering a knee injury during their recent match against Corinthians.
The Brazilian goalkeeper, who has been in top form this season, was forced off in the 24th minute of Flamengo's match at the Maracanã Stadium on Saturday night.
He was replaced by fellow goalkeeper Ederson, who made his debut for Flamengo in the Premier League.
Alisson, who has been with Flamengo since he was just 16 years old, has been a key player for the club and has helped them win several titles in recent years.
His injury means that Flamengo will be without one of their most important players as they continue their title challenge.
It remains to be seen how long Alisson will be out for,Bundesliga Express but it is likely that he will be sidelined for several months.
In the meantime, Flamengo will need to find a replacement for him and hope that he recovers quickly enough to return to action.
It is a big blow for Flamengo, who were already struggling without star striker Diego Costa, who is currently recovering from a hamstring injury.
However, they have shown resilience before and they will be hoping that they can bounce back from this setback.
Flamengo fans will also be disappointed that their team is missing such a key player, but they will be hopeful that they can overcome this setback and continue to compete for the title.
