Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson Becker has turned down a proposal from big-spending Saudi Pro League club Al-Nassr over a summer move.
According to a report by Football Insider, Alisson Becker is the subject of interest from Al-Nassr. The big-spending Saudi Pro League giants are keen on signing a goalkeeper in the summer transfer window. However, the 31-year-old Liverpool goalkeeper has knocked back the proposal from Al-Nassr as he does not want to leave the Merseyside club anytime soon.
The rise and rise of Alisson Becker
Alisson Becker has been one of the best players in the world since joining Liverpool from AS Roma in a big-money move in July 2018. An ever-present between the sticks for his club and country, the Brazilian international is far and ahead the finest goalkeeper in the game.
The 31-year-old has turned out over 250 times thus far for Liverpool, keeping 114 clean sheets while conceding 236 goals. Meanwhile, the veteran goalkeeper has even found the back of the net, with the strike earning Liverpool a win over West Bromwich Albion.
However, recent reports have created speculation surrounding Alisson’s future, with the big-spending Saudi Pro League clubs keen on poaching him from Liverpool. The latest update has revealed that the experienced shot-stopper is the subject of interest from Al-Nassr.
Saudi move on the horizon?
David Ospina is currently the first-choice goalkeeper for Al-Nassr, with the 35-year-old being one of the best players at the Saudi Pro League club. However, they want to change things in the summer transfer window, with the big-spending Saudi giants targeting several shot-stoppers in the last few weeks.
Recent reports have linked Al-Nassr with Wojciech Szczesny. However, while a summer move was close, the talks have collapsed in recent hours. Alisson Becker has thus emerged as a viable target for the Saudi Pro League outfit. However, a summer move for the Liverpool goalkeeper will not see the light of day, with the 31-year-old rejecting their approach.
Widespread reports have been adamant that Liverpool will not listen to offers to sell the Brazilian international. With the veteran goalkeeper not interested in moving to Saudi Arabia or leaving Liverpool, he will likely continue his stint at the Merseyside club.
