Liverpool still interested in summer swoop for Alisson

Liverpool are still interested in a summer move for Roma goalkeeper Alisson, according to Paul Joyce of The Times.

The Reds have been long time admirers of the Brazilian shot stopper and have been scouting him frequently this year. They are still keen to bring hin to Anfield and will be hoping that Roma decide to let the 25-year-old leave in the summer.

All indications are that the Italian side are keen to keep the Brazilian at their club and as such, they will ask for a huge fee in order to put off any potential suitors.

However, Liverpool are willing to splash the cash and if Roma ask for a price that the Reds deem as fair, then they will be prepared to pay up.

If Roma choose not to sell the goalkeeper, then Liverpool will be happy to keep Loris Karius as first-choice and will use Danny Ward as the back up, with Simon Mignolet set to depart.

Jurgen Klopp, as shown by the pursuits of Naby Keita and Virgil van Dijk, is unwilling to sign backup options to his preferred targets and it seems like that’s the case again here, so it’s seemingly Alisson or nobody when it comes to Liverpool’s potential recruitment of a new goalkeeper this summer.
