Alisson warning to Juventus, declaring ‘my will is to stay’ at Liverpool
Alisson Becker had been close to Juventus over the summer, but has now poured cold water over a future transfer after admitting ‘my will is to stay’ with an extended contract at Liverpool.
The Brazilian is no stranger to Serie A, having started his European career at Roma in 2016.
Just two years later, he earned a big money Premier League move to Liverpool and has remained ever since, winning the Premier League and Champions League.
Alisson shrugs off Juventus pursuit
Over the summer, Juventus had made Alisson their prime target in goal, but that was scuppered when Liverpool activated the automatic one-year extension to his contract.
They had hoped to postpone the free transfer to the summer of 2027, but that too now seems to be in doubt after the goalkeeper’s comments.
“Yes, in my mind, you know it depends on a lot of aspects and different situations, but my will is to stay,” he told The Athletic after being asked about new contract talks at Liverpool.
“I’m happy here, my family is happy here and I’m still hungry for titles and delivering good performances. I still want to play at the top level for as long as I can.”
Alisson turned 34 last month and has been used for every Liverpool game this season except for the Carabao Cup, despite the purchase of Giorgi Mamardashvili.
