Agent confirms Liverpool star is in talks over new deal

Agent confirms Liverpool star is in talks over new deal Alisson Becker Contract Talks Give Liverpool a Clear Goalkeeping Decision Liverpool have a decision to make on Alisson Becker, and it looks like the process has already started. Early discussions are underway over a new deal for the Brazilian, whose current contract is due to expire next June. That matters, because Alisson remains one of the few players in this squad who can still decide games on his own. Liverpool know it, Alisson knows it, and now his camp have effectively confirmed it in public. Alisson Becker open to Liverpool stay There has been noise around several Liverpool contracts in recent months, including Alexis Mac Allister, but Alisson’s situation is simpler. He wants to stay. His agent, Ze Maria, made that clear, saying to WinWin : “Alisson loves Liverpool very much. We are in preliminary talks to renew the contract.” That is not a deal done, and it is not even close to one yet. Still, when a player is happy, the agent is talking and the club are engaged, it usually means there is something concrete to discuss.

He is 34, and Liverpool have not built a reputation for handing major renewals to players in that bracket. Then again, rules in football tend to bend for elite players. Liverpool already made one such call when they renewed Mohamed Salah’s deal in April 2025. Alisson could fall into the same category, particularly if the club believe there is still another season or two of top-level performance there. His current wages are reported at £250,000 per week, which already places him among the top earners in the squad. Any extension would involve another serious financial commitment. That is the real calculation here. Crystal Palace display showed Alisson quality Recent mistakes had raised a few questions, fairly enough, but his display against Crystal Palace was a reminder of why Liverpool have trusted him for so long. He made a series of high-level saves and looked like himself again, calm, sharp and decisive. That is why this conversation is happening. If Alisson were declining badly, there would be no serious debate. Instead, Liverpool are weighing cost against certainty, and in his position certainty carries a premium. Nothing is settled yet. These are early talks. But the signs are positive, and for Liverpool, keeping Alisson Becker may still be the most sensible piece of business available.
