Alisson Becker on Saudi links

Current Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson Becker was linked with a move away from the club this summer.

Saudi Arabia Pro League outfits were reportedly keen on signing the 31-year-old Brazilian international. But he revealed that he knocked them back to stay at Anfield.

In an interview with the Times, Alisson that he was attracted to the idea of moving but nothing came of it.

“I never got to the point where I was talking about wages and things like this. It was just interest, but when you hear about the numbers the other players are getting you are a little bit attracted. That is normal.

“At the end of the day, you play football for love, it is the thing you like to do, but it is our profession and we want to use the years that we have to make the most of it. I think I am open to that personally but not now. Now is not the time.”
