Alisson eyes transfer to Real Madrid

Liverpool will have to reassess their goalkeeping options after Alisson is eyeing a transfer to Real Madrid, according to The Liverpool Echo.

Liverpool have been linked with Alisson for the past six months, but it is reported that his future will be elsewhere.

The Reds reportedly made a bid for the Brazilian shot-stopper, but the reports from Brazil suggesting that were not true.

Liverpool have watched over Alisson but have made no contact with Roma, as the Merseyside club believe a deal for the shot-stopper would prove too difficult.

It is understood Alisson would prefer a move to Real Madrid regardless.

Roma have no intention of selling their prized asset and Alisson has not asked for a move either. Despite this, Roma are still preparing to lose Alisson and are putting in contingency plans.

Liverpool still remain in the market for a new goalkeeper after Loris Karius’ performance in the Champions League final defeat in Kiev. Also, Simon Mignolet is set to depart which will open up another spot.
