Liverpool - Many call the price of 67 million pounds, which Liverpool issued to bring goalkeeper Alisson Becker too high. But, the Reds certainly did not come from pouring money. Because, Becker has a good record during appearances in Serie A with AS Roma. Officially completed the transfer record for goalkeepers in the world to bring AS Roma player Alisson Becker.
The Brazilian goalkeeper has been an important part of Roma's success in reaching the Champions League semifinals last season. His performance last season has attracted a lot of attention from the entire realm of European football.
Alisson began his senior career with his childhood club Internacional in Brazil. He made 83 league appearances over four seasons before moving to AS Roma. In fact, because of his appearance he was once touted as Lionel Messi's goalkeeper in Europe.
Then, why does Alisson Becker deserve to be called a phenomenal goalkeeper.
1. Shining Since at the Brazilian Club
Before joining AS Roma in 2016, Alisson Becker defended the Brazilian club, Internacional since 2013. During the 3 years there, he managed to play 56 times by conceding only 59 goals. In fact, of his 56 appearances with Internacional, Alisson is still relatively young, able to record as many as 26 clean sheets without conceding for his club.
2. Increasingly Shining in AS Roma
Deciding to play in Rome when he was 24 years old, Alisson was not immediately the first choice. In his second season, Alisson became Roma's mainstay goalkeeper. In Italy's Serie A alone, Alisson appeared 37 times, with a small number of conceded, only 28 goals and 17 clean sheets.
3. Shine in Serie A and Europe
2017/18 season, Alisson is not only proven in Italy. The Champions League also became the stage, successfully delivering AS Roma to the semifinal round of Europe's most elite soccer competition. Alisson was second in the best rescue ratio in Europe's top 5 leagues last season. Alisson had a rescue ratio of 80.1% last season, only losing to Jan Oblak who had a ratio of 85.8%.
4. Shine in the 2018 World Cup
With a brilliant and consistent appearance throughout the past season, Alisson managed to defeat Ederson Moraes as the main goalkeeper of the Brazilian National Team in the 2018 World Cup. Liverpool's new goalkeeper is able to perform 5 times by conceding just 3 goals and making important rescue 4 times. He also recorded being able to release accurate feedback as many as 80 touches during his 5 appearances in the 2018 World Cup.
Together with the Reds, Alisson immediately proved his ability by recording three consecutive clean sheets in the English league. In the next game, Alisson will again be the mainstay of the Reds in this fight.
