have been linked with a host of goalkeepers even before the mistakes Loris Karius made in the Champions League final, but since then it s been a pure frenzy. The list of possible targets has been going longer every day, but the only keeper whose links with the Merseysiders has never been disputed is AS Roma s Alisson Becker.
It has been reported that Roma s asking price was deemed too steep and that Liverpool had informed Alisson s entourage not to expect a bid. The deal seemed dead as the likes of and more recently Chelsea took over as favourites for his services. Real seem to have cooled their interest and turned their attention towards Thibaut Courtois, which would open the door for Alisson at Chelsea.
However, now claim Anfield is the Brazil international s preferred destination, and that his agent has announced a possible incoming bid from the Reds. The bid would apparently consist of €60million straight up and a possible €10million in add-ons, which seems the closest to Roma s demand of a fixed €70million. They also claim this is the week when the situation is likely to be resolved.
