A number of Liverpool supporters are delighted with the news that Alisson is set to sign a new deal at Anfield imminently.

The Brazilian has proven to be a colossal signing for the Reds, having arrived from Roma in the summer of 2018.

Along with Virgil van Dijk, Alisson helped turn Liverpool from a good team into a great one, with Champions League and Premier League glory sealed in back-to-back years.

The 28-year-old continued to be a key man in 2020/21, despite a dip in form after sadly losing his father, famously scoring a last-gasp winner at West Brom last month.

According to BBC Sport, Liverpool will open contract talks with the Brazil international after he returns from Copa America duty this summer, tying him down a new long-term deal.
