LIVERPOOL STAR ALEX OXLADE-CHAMBERLAIN’S INJURY SET TO KEEP HIM OUT OF WHOLE 2018-19 SEASON


Alisson is set to become the most expensive goalkeeper in history, with Liverpool surpassing the £34.7 million (AU$61 million) fee Manchester City paid for Ederson in 2017.


Alisson will become Jurgen Klopp’s fourth signing of the summer, joining fellow new arrivals Naby Keita, Fabinho and Xherdan Shaqiri at Anfield.

LIVERPOOL’S STUNNING $118M MOVE TO SOLVE GK CRISIS


Reds fans can take a deep sigh of relief, as the deal is a massive step in the right direction when it comes to solving their goalkeeper crisis.


Loris Karius’ vital mistakes in the Champions League final immediately put him in the firing line, and his clangers in previous seasons didn’t help his cause either.


As for Simon Mignolet, he’s been far from convincing during his time in Merseyside, with Reds fans constantly unhappy with the goalkeeper situation at the club.

So the introduction of the fresh-faced Brazil international, who featured at the World Cup in Russia, would be warmly greeted by Reds fans.


Alisson made 49 appearances for Roma last season and was part of the side that suffered a 7-6 aggregate defeat to Liverpool in the semi-finals of the Champions League.
