EXCLUSIVE: Liverpool ready to beat Barcelona and Real Madrid to incredible left-back

Alisson is under contract at Anfield until 2027, but the signing of Giorgi Mamardashvili had led to speculation that the former Roma ‘keeper would leave Liverpool in the summer.

Alisson very happy at Liverpool

The Brazilian, who has won almost every trophy available to him at Liverpool, is not pushing for a move away from the club, and a summer transfer seems unlikely seeing as Arne Slot has spoken repeatedly of his admiration for Alisson.

Following Liverpool’s 1-0 over Girona, the game in which Alisson made his comeback from injury, Slot described the 32-year-old as ‘the best in the world’.

“Alisson has been so important to this club for so many years,” Slot said post-match. “[He] showed today that he’s probably one of the best – in my opinion the best – goalkeeper in the world.”

Alisson has been the Reds’ first choice since he arrived from Roma in 2018 for £67m, a world-record fee for a goalkeeper at the time.

Since then, the Brazilian has won two Premier League golden gloves and proven time and time again he is one of the world’s best, even scoring a crucial goal to help his side qualify for the Champions League in 2021.

Alisson is Arne Slot’s first-choice goalkeeper

Despite the impressive performances of Caoimhin Kelleher, who has stepped up admirably multiple times in recent years, Alisson remains the clear first-choice for Slot.

Alisson has started in every Premier League and Champions League game he has been available for and has only been rested for FA and Carabao Cup matches.

With eight league clean sheets the Reds no. 1 is only three behind league leader Matz Sels and, after keeping clean sheets in his last two matches, could still claim his third Premier League golden glove this season.
