Alisson‘s contract expires at the end of the season but Liverpool have an option to extend it by a further year – though now the Brazilian is linked with Juventus.
Alisson to Juventus? Liverpool transfer links explained
Transfer interest: Juventus are reportedly weighing up a move for Alisson as a ‘lower-budget replacement for Michele Di Gregorio.
Contract situation: While his current deal expires in June 2026, Liverpool are widely expected to trigger a one-year extension to keep him at Anfield until 2027.
Succession plan: Despite the £29m arrival of Giorgi Mamardashvili, Alisson remains No. 1, having played 2,486 minutes this season compared to just 934.
Alisson‘s current deal runs out on June 30, however it is widely anticipated that Liverpool will take up their option to extend that to 2027.
That would be regardless of their stance over the goalkeeper’s future, of course, as tying him down for an additional 12 months would add value if he were to be sold.
While a sale is unlikely to be on the agenda for a player who remains guaranteed No. 1 and has clocked the sixth-most minutes among Arne Slot‘s squad this season, that impending contract deadline will certainly attract interest.

According to Italian newspaper La Gazzetta dello Sport that includes Juventus, who are looking to replace Michele Di Gregorio.
Along with Tottenham‘s Guglielmo Vicario, the Serie A outfit are weighing up the possibility of signing Alisson, who it is claimed would be a lower-budget option.
Alisson has already played and lived in Italy for a number of years and worked under current Juventus head coach Luciano Spalletti at AS Roma.
It remains to be seen if the 33-year-old would consider a move from Anfield, though the decision to sign Giorgi Mamardashvili from Valencia in a £29 million deal last summer shows Liverpool are already planning for life without him.

Whether Mamardashvili will settle as long-term No. 1 remains to be seen, with Slot showing no sign of establishing him as genuine competition for Alisson this season – including leaving him out for this month’s FA Cup win over Brighton.
There is an argument to make that if Liverpool were truly in transition when it comes to their goalkeeping options, more opportunities would have been provided at this stage.
What has Alisson said about his contract and leaving Liverpool?

Much could also depend on Alisson‘s own desires, and speaking in June last year he confirmed his plan to return to Brazil with former club Internacional while still “at a high level.”
“Personally, I have never been able to plan for the long term,” he told O Globo.
“Obviously, I have one year left on my contract and another year of option from the club. They will probably exercise that option.
“I think about what I have in hand, about doing a great job, it is a decisive moment in my career, with a World Cup approaching.
“I want to be very focused, I don’t want any planning to get in the way of this great goal.”
