‘I was only the most expensive for two weeks!’ – Alisson welcomes £65m worth of expectation at Liverpool

The Brazil international was acquired by the Reds for big money in the summer of 2018, making him the world’s costliest goalkeeper for a brief period

Liverpool star Alisson claims to have embraced the pressure which saw him become the world’s most expensive goalkeeper “for two weeks” and a leading man at Anfield.

The Brazil international was snapped up by the Reds from Roma for £65 million ($84m) during the summer of 2018.

That deal, which made him the costliest custodian on the planet at the time, was quickly topped by Chelsea’s capture of Kepa Arrizabalaga.
