Firmino: Alisson has asked about Liverpool move

Roberto Firmino claims that Alisson has asked him about joining Liverpool.

Alisson is among Jurgen Klopp’s reported transfer targets with Simon Mignolet set to pursue regular first-team football away from Anfield this summer.

The Roma goalkeeper was named in Brazil’s 23-man squad for the World Cup and is working alongside Reds forward Firmino in the build-up to Russia.

And the Liverpool marksman revealed that Alisson, 25, has sounded him out over a potential switch to Merseyside but admits that it may be out of his hands.

“Yes, he asked me about Liverpool,” said Firmino.

“I hope he can come here but I know he has other proposals.

“From time to time I will give him a pinch to come to Liverpool and help us, but it’s with his agents.

“It wouldn’t be bad if he came to Liverpool.”
