Alisson to reject Liverpool for Real Madrid move?
AS Roma Alisson is reportedly stalling over a move to Liverpool with Real Madrid said to be mulling over a possible transfer approach.
The Reds have been tipped to sign the Brazil international for a number of months and their efforts have only increased after a couple of calamitous errors by Loris Karius in the Champions League final.
However, there are now likely to face strong competition from European champions Real Madrid, who are understood to be Alisson's preferred destination this summer, Marca reports.
Keylor Navas has been Los Blancos' preferred goalkeeper over the past three seasons but the Costa Rican is being fancied to leave the club this summer following the departure of manager Zinedine Zidane.
Zidane was supposedly reluctant to replace Navas between the sticks at the Bernabeu but with his exit, club president Florentino Perez is very much certain to pursue a new shot-stopper.
Alisson, who is currently valued at £60m, featured for Brazil during their 2-0 friendly win over Croatia at Anfield on Sunday. He has three years left on his AS Roma contract.
