The 30-year-old Brazilian goalkeeper, Alisson, has become a subject of interest for Saudi Pro League team Al-Nassr, as reported by sources from FootMercato. Despite having three years left on his contract with Liverpool, Alisson’s exceptional talents have caught the eye of potential suitors.
Alongside Alisson, Manchester United’s Raphael Varane and Casemiro have also been identified as potential targets for trades, especially with the latter announcing his departure from Old Trafford. This flurry of transfer activity hints at potential changes at Anfield, especially under the management of newly appointed head coach Arne Slot.
Alisson’s 2023-24 season was marred by injuries, limiting him to just 28 Premier League appearances for Liverpool. However, his standout performances, including heroic saves against Newcastle United, underscore his importance to the team. Despite occasional stand-in performances by backup goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher, Alisson remains the undisputed first choice at Anfield.
The prospect of working with a goalkeeper of Alisson’s caliber will undoubtedly be enticing for new head coach Slot, who has signed a three-year deal with the club. Despite facing a hamstring injury during the season, Alisson’s resilience and talent reaffirm his status as one of Liverpool’s all-time great goalkeepers.
As Liverpool aims to strengthen their squad and compete at the highest level, retaining Alisson’s services will be paramount. With his expected pivotal role under the new head coach, Alisson’s influence between the posts will continue to be vital for Liverpool’s success in the upcoming season.
