Alisson has reportedly agreed personal terms with Juventus ahead of possibly joining the Turin club from Liverpool this summer.

Speculation linking the Brazilian with a move to Serie A has intensified in recent weeks, and Italian journalist Nicolo Schira says that he has now agreed a contract worth €5 million ($5.9 million) per year.

Although personal terms have apparently been agreed, Juve still faces the task of convincing Liverpool to let Alisson leave. The Brazilian is not agitating for a move away from Merseyside and will ultimately allow Liverpool to have the final say on whether he can leave.

Alisson remains Liverpool's first-choice goalkeeper, but his availability – or lack thereof – has become an issue over the last couple of seasons, and he is currently sidelined with a hamstring injury once again.

Freddie Woodman has started Liverpool's last two games following an injury to second-choice stopper Giorgi Mamardashvili.

Fitness issues have hampered Alisson over the last couple of seasons, and he is currently in the midst of another lay-off, having not played since a Champions League win over Galatasaray in mid-March.

In a press conference last week ahead of Liverpool's trip to Manchester United, Arne Slot confirmed that Alisson is closing in on a return but that he would not be rushed.

"Ali hasn’t trained with us yet. Very close to train with us. I have to hear today from the medical staff to see if he is ready to train today, either tomorrow or the start of next week," Slot said.

"He is very close, but also we don’t want to take any risks. That is not what you do with a player and that is not what we do now.

"I think there is a difference between a goalkeeper and (an outfield) player because if a player hasn’t trained in a few weeks... (outfield) players need to run more than goalkeepers do.

"So I don’t think the issue with an (outfield) player when he is out for four or five weeks that he forgot to play football, it’s usually that the fitness levels are not at this intensity to play at the level the Premier League is asking. There is a difference between a goalkeeper and an outfield player.

"For us, it is a bonus every player that comes back because it is getting longer and longer. It has been like that throughout the whole season."

Last month, Slot refused to rule out the possibility of Alisson leaving Liverpool. "I think the club is run in a certain way and we make decisions that the club thinks are in the best interests of the club," he said. "And it could mean this is the reason why. It could mean another good argument why we acted how we acted.

"I think the history of all the transfers shows that nothing was done without a purpose or without thinking about it. Look, the people who make these decisions take everything into account. 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."
