Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson Becker has expressed his desire to remain with the club beyond the end of the current season. The 34-year-old Brazilian defender joined Liverpool from Roma for a fee of £66.8m back in 2018 and has since made 347 appearances for the Reds. Speaking to media, Alisson stated, "Yes [I want to stay], in my mind.

I’m focused on playing every game but in my mind I’m happy to stay." He added that his decision is influenced by various factors, but his primary motivation is to continue playing at the highest level and securing titles. Liverpool's head coach, Andoni Iraola, is uncertain about Alisson's future but hopes he can contribute for a longer period.

The goalkeeper himself admitted that his agent is in discussions with the club regarding a new contract. Earlier this year, Alisson contemplated a move to Juventus, but ultimately decided to stay at Anfield. Following a challenging week marked by losses to both Arsenal and Fenerbahce, Alisson delivered crucial saves in Liverpool's victory against Crystal Palace. He emphasized the need for the team to establish consistency in order to challenge for silverware.
