Alisson has been a revelation at Liverpool this season

After a stellar campaign with Roma, the Reds eventually won the fight for Alisson – parting with a record67million fee to take the shot-stopper to Anfield.The 26-year-old could have signed for rivals Chelsea, but has explained why he opted for Jurgen Klopp’s Reds.Speaking toFourFourTwo, Alisson said: I choseLiverpoolfor the same reasons I went to Roma when I first left Brazil I thought this would be the best move for my career.Chelsea were changing their manager and not playing in the Champions League. Ive also always admired Liverpools history.2

Chelsea instead signed Kepa Arrizabalaga

“This is a club with five European Cups in their trophy cabinet. I really wanted to be part of that history.I came very close to winning the competition with Roma and Im working hard to make it happen now with Liverpool.“Whats life if not fighting for your dreams? I dream of winning the Champions League.The Blues instead signed Kepa Arrizabalaga from Athletic Bilbao for a world record fee, who has also impressed since his summer move. However, it is Alisson who has established himself as David de Gea’s rival for the right to be called the best in the Premier League.The 26-year-old’s late save against Napoli last month in the Champions League ensured qualification at Anfield.And he has helped Liverpool turn into the strongest defence in the Premier League, conceding just ten goals in 21 matches this season.
