Liverpool linked with move for Alisson

Liverpool have alternated between Simon Mignolet and Loris Karius this season and while the Reds’ defensive record is decent, most Liverpool fans will tell you that they are not comfortable with the goalkeeping situation.

Neither Mignolet or Karius have been able to nail down the starting role and establish themselves as a reliable option between the sticks, and it appears as if Jurgen Klopp is ready to address the situation.

Italian news outlet Gazzetta dello Sport, Liverpool are among three Champions League giants that are considering a move for Roma goalkeeper Alisson.

After keeping 12 clean sheets in 24 games so far this season, Alisson has emerged on the radar of a number of clubs, with the report claiming that both PSG and Barcelona re redy to rival Liverpool for his signature.

Alisson is the current Brazil No.1 in goal, keeping Manchester City’s Ederson on the sidelines and is widely regarded as one of the best goalkeepers in Serie A alongside Gianluigi Buffon and Samir Handanovic.

Contracted until 2021, Alisson would be ineligible for the Champions League should he join Liverpool having helped Roma into the last 16 of the competition.
