Liverpool are set to smash the world record transfer fee for a goalkeeper by completing a move for Brazilian shot-stopper, Allison.
The AS Roma goalie is one of the highly rated goalkeeper in the world at the moment, and he has been attracting the attention of several top European sides.
Rea Madrid are among teams trying to see him next summer, but Liverpool are reportedly closing in on his signature.
According to Sun Sport, the Reds are planning to win the Premier League next season, and they know their current options in their goalkeeping department are not good enough.
Jurgen Klopp has made Loris Karius first choice ahead of Simon Mignolet, but even the German has flattered to deceive at some points in the season. He has, however, kept two consecutive clean sheets so far and he would be hoping to keep that form as they head into a very important moment in their season.
Roma have been made aware of the interest of the European heavyweights on Allison and the Italians have reportedly set an asking price of £62 million for the Brazilian. This figure would make him the world’s most expensive goalkeeper by some distance.
