Alisson Ready to Join Juventus Despite Europa League Prospect

His preference forces a complex transfer fight to resolve Liverpool's contract hold, Juventus' reduced revenue and a World Cup deadline.

Overview

  • Reports on Wednesday say Alisson has told Juventus he is willing to move to Turin even if the club plays in the Europa League next season.
  • Liverpool have activated a one‑year option that keeps Alisson under contract until June 2027 so any move requires a fee and a club‑to‑club agreement.
  • Juventus face a potential shortfall of about €55m–€60m if they miss the Champions League which will tighten their ability to pay Alisson's wages and agent commissions.
  • Alisson wants his club future settled before joining Brazil for the 2026 World Cup and his agents are expected to press for talks to accelerate over the coming weeks.
  • Sporting factors are driving the interest on both sides: Alisson has had recent hamstring issues and faces competition from Giorgi Mamardashvili at Liverpool while Juventus see him as an experienced leader to replace underperforming options like Michele Di Gregorio.
