Alisson Becker’s Future at Liverpool: Romano Shares Key Update
Staying competitive at the top requires clubs to hold onto their difference-makers—and for Liverpool, Alisson Becker is exactly that.
Since arriving from AS Roma in 2018, the Brazilian goalkeeper has been a pivotal figure for the Reds. His current deal runs until 2026, with an option for Liverpool to extend it by another year.
Alisson was instrumental in Liverpool’s 2024/25 Premier League title win, recording 10 clean sheets in 28 matches. His performance ranks among the league’s best keepers this season.
Stats – Premier League Clean Sheets 2024/25 (via Transfermarkt):
- David Raya: 13 (38 games)
- Matz Sels: 13 (38 games)
- Jordan Pickford: 12 (38 games)
- Dean Henderson: 11 (38 games)
- Ederson: 10 (26 games)
- Alisson Becker: 10 (28 games)
Why Alisson Must Stay
There’s no compelling reason Liverpool should consider moving on from their No.1. Though newly signed Giorgi Mamardashvili—who joined last year—could eventually challenge him, Alisson remains arguably the best goalkeeper in the world right now.
According to updates shared by Fabrizio Romano on X (formerly Twitter), Alisson still feels capable of competing at the highest level.
What Comes Next?
At just 34 by 2027, there’s no urgency for Liverpool to start phasing him out. Still, Alisson has made no secret of his long-term desire to return to Brazil and play for his boyhood club, Internacional.
As he told Echo, “I want to return, especially to Inter. I don’t know when it will happen, but I still want to do it at a high level. That’s what I have planned.”
With Mamardashvili waiting in the wings, Alisson’s eventual exit may align with the end of his contract—but for now, he remains an essential figure for Liverpool.
