The Liverpool club have already refused to allow their player Mohamed Salah to take part in next month’s World Cup qualifier against the Egyptian national team, as he will have to be isolated after his return to England.

As Brazil prepares to face Chile, Argentina and Peru next month, the same actions will affect the Liverpool trio, Roberto Firmino, Alison Becker and Fabinho.

The British government put Brazil, Chile, Argentina and Peru on the “red list”, forcing returnees from those countries to be isolated for ten days in a hotel.

The Premier League said in a statement: “Premier League clubs should not unanimously allow their players to play for their national teams in the countries listed on the red list next month.”

The players’ journey will be to miss two league matches once they return to England.

With World Cup qualifiers taking place in Africa, Asia, North and Central America and the Caribbean (CONCACAF), Europe and South America, clubs are close to clashing with FIFA.

The European Clubs Association sent a document to its members in the form of questions and answers published by the Times newspaper that FIFA had taken a unilateral decision and “received clear objections from the European Club Association and other parties concerned.”

The document states: “The ECA expresses its strong opposition to FIFA’s decision and urges it to reconsider its position. . “

The European Clubs Association said at the request of the South American Football Association that FIFA had decided this month to extend the deadline for players to “completely ignore clubs’ interests” and join national teams.

He said FIFA was unlikely to change its decision and that the association should consider what action it would take.

There was no immediate comment from FIFA on the matter.
