Liverpool face a defining summer as Alisson edges closer to Juventus exit
Liverpool have a massive call to make this summer, with Alisson Becker reportedly moving closer to a Juventus switch. According to talkSPORT, things are progressing quickly; Italian reporter Nicolo Schira even claims the Brazilian has already settled on personal terms with the Turin giants. The deal is said to be worth €5 million a year through 2029, while Juventus continue to haggle with Liverpool over the final price tag.
Liverpool actually triggered a contract extension for Alisson recently, keeping him tied down until 2027. Most see this as a tactical move to make sure he doesn’t walk away for nothing, giving the club some control in negotiations. While Liverpool are holding out for somewhere between €10m and €15m, Juventus are trying to lowball that figure or skip the fee entirely.
It hasn’t been the easiest year for the 33-year-old, either. A save percentage of just 65.12% across 25 league games, conceding 23 goals along the way, suggests his best form might be behind him. He hasn’t played since the 4–0 win over Galatasaray back in March, leaving Freddie Woodman to hold the fort. The pull of Serie A is strong, though, especially with his former Roma boss Luciano Spalletti now in charge at Juve. For his part, Alisson isn’t forcing a move; he’s leaving the ball in Liverpool’s court.

Do Liverpool actually benefit from selling Alisson this summer?
Logic says yes, even if it’s hard for fans to swallow. Selling Alisson now makes a lot of financial sense. Those constant hamstring injuries are becoming a real headache for the club, and that 65.12% save rate proves that availability is becoming just as big a problem as his actual performance.

With Giorgi Mamardashvili already waiting in the wings, Liverpool have a clear way forward. Alisson is part of a veteran group, including Mo Salah and Andy Robertson, that looks set to move on, so a total rebuild is happening whether the club like it or not. Taking €10–15m today is much smarter than watching his value tank before 2027. It’s time for Liverpool to bank the cash, let Mamardashvili take over the No. 1 spot, and start this new era with a clean slate.
