£150k p/w star not safe from sale despite new contract It promises to be another summer of big change around Anfield. Liverpool’s Premier League title defence has simply not gone to plan and it means more changes to the squad are coming. Wing and centre midfield are priority areas while the club could also do with an experienced senior centre-back option.

But what about departures? According to one report in Football Insider we could see the club sanction an outbound deal for Alisson Becker. The Brazilian, 33, had a one-year extension in his contract recently triggered - meaning he is due to leave the club in 2027.

Alisson could be sold to Juventus Juventus and Inter Milan are known to retain interest in the former Roma goalkeeper - who is reported to earn around £150k per week. But concerns over his long-term fitness could see the Anfield club move him on - and use Giorgi Mamardashvili as their new No1 going forward.
