Alisson’s agent reveals he nearly joined Real Madrid

Fabrizio De Vecchi, agent of Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson Becker, revealed to AS that he almost moved to Real Madrid.

In 2018, Alisson came to Liverpool, replacing the highly questionable Simon Mignolet and Loris Karius. Within two seasons, the Brazilian stopper won the Champions League and the Premier League with the Reds.

Alisson is one of the main men credited with turning Liverpool’s fortunes around, and elevating them to the next level needed to win major honours. But things could have turned out so differently had he instead made the move to Real Madrid.
