The future of Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson has been the subject of several questions sent in via our club Ask Me Anything form. When Arne Slot was asked last week about the possibility of Alisson leaving this summer, the Liverpool head coach did not guarantee he would stay. If the Brazilian, who has been linked with Juventus, was to leave, then it would mean Liverpool losing another experienced campaigner, with Mohamed Salah and Andy Robertson already confirming their exits this summer.
The future of Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson has been the subject of several questions sent in via our club Ask Me Anything form.
When Arne Slot was asked last week about the possibility of Alisson leaving this summer, the Liverpool head coach did not guarantee he would stay. So there is certainly a chance he moves on.
If the Brazilian, who has been linked with Juventus, was to leave, then it would mean Liverpool losing another experienced campaigner, with Mohamed Salah and Andy Robertson already confirming their exits this summer.
"The people who make these decisions take everything into account," said Slot, when asked about the 33-year-old.
"They try to make the best decisions with the interest of the club. It [experience] is definitely one argument to keep him but there are other arguments. That is a decision the club has to make if that is needed. In the end, he still has one year [on his contract]."
Alisson signed a one-year contract extension in March that would see him through to the end of 2026-27 at Anfield and stop him leaving on a free this summer.
But he missed 16 games last season through injury and that tally is already at 17 this time around.
In Giorgi Mamardashvili, Liverpool have their back-up option ready to step up as a new permanent number one.
So if a reasonable offer was to come in this summer for Alisson, who has played 332 games for Liverpool since joining from Roma in 2018, then there is certainly a possibility that both parties could choose to move on.
What do you think about the situation with Alisson? Would this summer be the right time to sell? And is Mamardashvili good enough to step up to number one?
