# Atletico Madrid join Liverpool in Alisson race

Atletico Madrid have joined Liverpool in the race to sign Roma goalkeeper Alisson.

[According to Mundo Deportivo, via TeamTalk](https://www.teamtalk.com/news/atletico-eye-e80m-liverpool-target-amid-fears-of-losing-88m-star-to-arsenal), Atletico Madrid are eyeing up a potential move to sign Alisson this summer if Jan Oblak leaves the Spanish side.

Chelsea and Arsenal are both said to be interested in Oblak, who has a release clause of £88m.

Alisson, meanwhile, is thought to be valued in that top-end bracket, with Roma valuing him at €80m.

Real Madrid have previously been linked with Alisson, but Liverpool have launched a £70m move to sign the shot-stopper.

The Brazil international has been in sensational form for Roma in the Serie A this season and looks set for a big move this summer.

Liverpool will have to stave off interest from the two Madrid giants if they want to stand a chance at landing Alisson when the transfer window opens at the end of the season.
