Alisson Becker

-

Alisson Becker is a safe pair of hands between the sticks for Liverpool.
He arrived to the club in July 2018 from AS Roma and enjoyed an incredible first season on Merseyside.
Having penned a long-term deal, the goalkeeper was an immediate starter for Jürgen Klopp's side, wearing the No.13 shirt.
He began his Liverpool career with a clean sheet in a 4-0 win over West Ham United at Anfield in the 2018-19 Premier League opener.
He played every minute of the Reds' domestic campaign and made history when he became the club's first goalkeeper to win the Premier League Golden Glove award in over a decade after recording 21 clean sheets.
The Brazil international was crucial in helping Liverpool win the Champions League for the sixth time. He preserved the Reds' spot in the knockout stages of the 2018-19 competition with a crucial late save against Napoli in matchday six win back in December 2018.

Alisson was then impenetrable in the Madrid final, making a series of interventions to deny Tottenham Hotspur as Klopp's men won 2-0.
It was announced in April 2019 that Alisson would switch from No.13 to No.1 at the start of the 2019-20 campaign

A fruitful August featured a perfect start to the Premier League season and UEFA Super Cup glory for Liverpool. Having begun the month with a penalty shootout defeat by Manchester City in the FA Community Shield, the Reds bounced back immediately to beat Norwich City 4-1 at Anfield on the opening day of the top-flight campaign. An own goal by Grant Hanley and strikes from Mohamed Salah , Divock Origi and Virgil van Dijk - who would be named UEFA Men's Player of the Year later in August - saw Jürgen Klopp's side surge into a four-goal, half-time lead.
