Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson Becker has confirmed that discussions over a potential contract extension are underway, making it clear that his preferred option is to remain at Anfield beyond the current season.
The Brazilian shot-stopper, who has been a key figure for the Reds since arriving from AS Roma in 2018, spoke about his future after Liverpool’s 3-1 Premier League victory over Crystal Palace on Sunday.
Alisson revealed that his agent is already in contact with the club regarding a new deal, while admitting that he and his family are settled and happy on Merseyside.
“Yes, in my mind, I want to stay. I’m focused on playing every game, but I’m happy here. My family is happy here as well. Of course, it depends on different aspects and situations, but my desire is to stay,” the goalkeeper explained.
At 34, Alisson also insisted that his ambition remains unchanged, stressing that he still wants to compete for major trophies and perform at the highest level for as long as possible.
“I’m still hungry for titles and for delivering good performances. I still want to play at the top level for as long as I can. That’s my thinking on that. My agent is talking with the club,” he added.
Liverpool Face Important Decision Over Alisson’s Future
Alisson’s current contract is due to expire in the summer of 2027, having previously received a 12-month extension.
His latest comments will be encouraging for Liverpool supporters, particularly with uncertainty surrounding the club’s long-term goalkeeping plans.
The Brazilian remains an important presence between the posts, combining his experience, leadership and outstanding shot-stopping ability.
Although the length and financial terms of any potential extension remain unclear, Alisson’s willingness to stay represents a positive starting point for negotiations.
Liverpool will now have to decide how best to secure the future of one of their most experienced players while planning for the next generation.
For Alisson, however, the message is clear: he is happy at Anfield, remains motivated to win trophies and would like his Liverpool journey to continue.
