Liverpool’s goalkeeper problems are well protracted, to say the least. Ever since Pepe Reina’s decline and eventual departure, Liverpool have failed to replace the Spaniard. Simon Mignolet was bought with much hopes and expectations, but he failed to live up to the same.

Right now, according to Jurgen Klopp, Loris Karius is the first choice goalkeeper of the Reds. When one looks at his movements in front of the nets, they begin to wonder as to how he became a goalkeeper in the first place.

This also shows the place of Simon Mignolet as a goalkeeper. As a result, Liverpool needs someone who they could rely on in front of the goal—and Roma’s Alisson is just that. When a player is linked with Real Madrid, it shows a lot about their calibre.
