Alisson Becker is expected to leave Liverpool at the conclusion of the 2024/25 season, with Turkish club Galatasaray emerging as a potential destination due to a Brazilian connection.
While Bayern Munich was previously considered a likely landing spot for the 32-year-old as a replacement for Manuel Neuer, that move now seems unlikely.
For now, Alisson’s focus remains on recovering from his current injury and returning to peak form before considering his next steps.
Galatasaray Targeting Alisson Becker
Liverpool has already secured Giorgi Mamardashvili, who will join the squad next summer.
At 24 years old, the Georgian goalkeeper represents a long-term investment by Arne Slot, signaling the club’s plans for the future.
It’s also unlikely that Mamardashvili would have agreed to move to Anfield without assurances of being the first-choice goalkeeper.
This leaves little room for Alisson, who, given his pedigree, is unlikely to accept a backup role.
As goalkeepers often enjoy longer careers than outfield players, a transfer appears to be the most logical step for the Brazilian.
Galatasaray’s connection to Liverpool’s goalkeeping coach Claudio Taffarel, a former Gala player and interim manager, could play a pivotal role in Alisson’s next move.
According to *Sabah Spor*, the Turkish club hopes Taffarel’s ties to both Liverpool and Galatasaray will give them an advantage in securing Alisson’s signature, should he decide to move on.
While Liverpool may not look favorably on one of their current staff assisting a first-team player in finding a new club, if it becomes clear that Alisson’s future lies elsewhere, Taffarel’s involvement could ultimately work in everyone’s favor.
