Liverpool are prepared to sanction the departure of goalkeeper Alisson Becker (33) this summer, with the Brazilian goalkeeper reportedly reaching an agreement on personal terms over a move to Juventus. According to Sky Sports, the Italian giants have identified the veteran as their primary target, while reports from Tribuna indicate Alisson has already agreed to a three-year contract in Turin worth approximately €5m (£4.3m) per season. Liverpool are understood to be seeking a fee between €15m (£12.8m) and €20m (£17.1m) for a player who has served as the club's undisputed first choice since 2018.
Mamardashvili succession and squad transition
The potential sale of Alisson aligns with Liverpool’s proactive planning in the goalkeeping department. The club secured the signing of Giorgi Mamardashvili from Valencia in 2024, specifically earmarking the Georgian as the long-term successor to the number one spot. At 33, Alisson remains under contract until June 2027 following a one-year extension triggered in March 2026, but the emergence of Mamardashvili and Alisson's reported willingness to move suggests a natural end to his tenure. Speaking on the player's future, journalist David Lynch noted that the advancement of negotiations indicates a mutual readiness for a separation. Manager Arne Slot has maintained a pragmatic stance, stating that the hierarchy will make decisions solely in the best interest of the club's long-term health.
Geertruida emerges as defensive target
The funds generated from Alisson’s departure could be immediately reinvested, with Liverpool monitoring RB Leipzig defender Lutsharel Geertruida (25). As reported by TeamTalk, Geertruida is available for a fixed fee of €23m (£19.7m) after Sunderland declined to activate their purchase option following his loan spell. This valuation represents significant market value for a versatile defender who can operate at right-back or centre-back. Slot previously managed Geertruida at Feyenoord and is thought to value his tactical flexibility, particularly as Conor Bradley continues to recover from a serious knee injury. With other veterans like Mohamed Salah and Andy Robertson also entering the final stages of their current cycles, Alisson’s move to Serie A would signal the start of a broader tactical and personnel refresh at Anfield.
Negotiations between the two clubs are expected to intensify as Juventus look to finalise their squad ahead of pre-season training.
