# Reds target Alisson closing in on €70m Real Madrid move

AS Roma and one-time Liverpool target Alisson is closing in on a dramatic €70 million move to Real Madrid.

[AS](https://as.com/futbol/2018/06/14/primera/1528966585_136446.html?id_externo_rsoc=CM_ES_TW) report that a deal is close with a fee being agreed between both clubs.

The player was said to be keen on seeing his future resolved before the World Cup starts. Brazil are due to kick off their campaign against Switzerland on Sunday.

Alisson had been heavily linked with a move to Anfield, with some reports going as far as suggesting a bid had been made.

However, that no longer [appears](https://readliverpoolfc.com/2018/06/12/liverpool-did-not-make-a-bid-for-alisson-and-they-dont-intend-to-do-so/) to be the case with the Reds looking to alternative transfer targets.

Liverpool are in the market for a new goalkeeper to replace Loris Karius, with neither Simon Mignolet or the former able to nail down the number one spot at Anfield.

Jack Butland, Jasper Cillessen and Lazio’s Thomas Strakosha have both been [linked](https://readliverpoolfc.com/2018/06/13/lazio-value-liverpool-target-at-e30m/) with moves to Anfield in recent weeks.
