Both Inter and Juventus have been linked with moves for Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson Becker over the last few weeks, but the Bianconeri feel that they are able to match the Brazilian’s salary demands and are hoping that Luciano Spalletti is a major convincing factor as well.
Why Juventus seem confident over Alisson Becker deal
Both Inter and Juventus could be on the lookout for new goalkeepers heading into the summer transfer window.
The Nerazzurri are expected to part ways with 37-year-old stopper Yann Sommer once his contract expires at the end of the season, and Juventus are unconvinced by the performances of Michele Di Gregorio, who has lost his no.1 status in recent weeks.
Unsurprisingly, a similar set of potential targets has cropped up for both clubs. Guglielmo Vicario is an option for both sides, as is Liverpool’s Alisson. Reports on Thursday claimed that Aston Villa’s Emiliano Martinez could also be a possibility for the Bianconeri.
However, reports from La Gazzetta dello Sport on Friday claim that Alisson is the most ‘reliable’ option for Juventus.
The Brazilian is still under contract with Liverpool until the end of the 2026-27 season, but Juventus hold out hope that the Premier League side may sanction a sale given that Alisson will be into the final year of his deal in the summer, and they already have his replacement lined up in Giorgi Mamardashvili.

Juventus are not put off by Alisson’s salary demands either. According to reports from La Gazzetta dello Sport, he currently earns a net salary in the region of €6m per season at Anfield, which would not go beyond Juve’s current wage structure.
Aside from Dusan Vlahovic, whose hefty contract will expire this summer, Juventus aim to keep all of their players on salaries below €7m per season according to Friday’s report.
There is also the Spalletti factor for Alisson, who worked under the current Bianconeri head coach at Roma. La Gazzetta dello Sport writes that if Spalletti is able to convince the Brazilian to join this summer, negotiations with Liverpool will become a ‘downhill slope’.
