Liverpool have set their sights on Brighton & Hove Albion goalkeeper Bart Verbruggen as the man to eventually fill the void left by Alisson, whose future at Anfield remains uncertain, according to a report by TEAMtalk.

The Dutch stopper has been outstanding for Brighton this season, recording seven clean sheets in 10 Premier League appearances as the Seagulls sit second in the table — four points clear of Liverpool themselves.

Alisson's uncertain future

Alisson, now 34, is out of contract at the end of the season. The Brazilian has endured a difficult campaign, drawing scrutiny for a handful of high-profile errors and attracting criticism after admitting he missed Liverpool matches last season in order to prepare for the World Cup.

His arrival from Roma under manager Jurgen Klopp transformed the club's goalkeeping position after Loris Karius' two costly mistakes in the 2018 UEFA Champions League final. Since then, Alisson established himself as arguably the finest goalkeeper in the Premier League — but questions now surround his long-term future with the club.

Liverpool's search for a No.1

Liverpool moved to address their goalkeeping future in 2025, signing Georgian keeper Giorgi Mamardashvili, though the 26-year-old has yet to command the same authority as Alisson between the sticks. Next summer, manager Andoni Iraola will also bring in 18-year-old Lucca Brughmans from Belgian club Genk in a deal that could reach £30 million — but neither arrival fully resolves the need for an established, senior first-choice goalkeeper.
