Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson Becker is reportedly enticed by a return to Serie A amidst growing interest from Juventus.
The Bianconeri are planning some changes between the posts ahead of next season. Although Michele Di Gregorio has shown some encouraging signs in recent weeks, Luciano Spalletti still has his doubts over the 28-year-old.
Mattia Perin was entrusted with the starting gloves prior to his recent injury, but he’s not considered a suitable profile for the No.1 role at a top European club.
In recent months, Juventus have been pondering their options on the market, but most sources agree that Alisson is the club’s ultimate target.
The Brazilian played under Luciano Spalletti’s guidance during the 2016/17 campaign at Roma. Although he was a backup for Wojciech Szczesny, Alisson was highly regarded by the manager.
Therefore, the 67-year-old has identified the Liverpool stalwart as the ideal profile to replace Di Gregorio in Turin.
According to Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano, the 33-year-old is now considered Juve’s ‘dream’ target.
Liverpool have recently exercised their option to extend Alisson’s contract until June 2027. However, a summer exit remains possible.
The transfer market expert reveals that the Brazilian and his entourage will hold talks with the Reds’ management in the coming days.
The same goes for Alisson’s teammate, Giorgi Mamardashvili, suggesting that one of the two shot-stoppers could be on his way out of Anfield, as neither is willing to settle for a secondary role.
