Alisson's contract is set to expire in the summer but the Liverpool goalkeeper remains hungry for more success at Anfield and is keen to extend his time at the club

Alisson has confirmed he's begun talks about extending his future at Liverpool - and insists he remains hungry to claim more titles at Anfield.

The Brazilian has been the Reds' No 1 since 2018 when he joined from Roma for a then record £67million and could see his spell on Merseyside extend beyond a decade with his next contract.

Liverpool triggered the one-year extension in the summer as Juventus circled, and Alisson remains the first choice under Andoni Iraola. The Reds have prepared for life after the 34-year-old, dropping £60m on Giorgi Mamardashvili from Valencia and Lucca Brughmans, who remained on loan at Belgian club Genk, in recent years.

Alisson again showcased his quality with Sunday's win over Crystal Palace and the Liverpool star, who has won two Premier Leagues and the Champions League at the club, has instructed in representatives to seek an extension with his deal due to expire at season's end.

He said: “Yes, in my mind (I want to say). I’m focused on playing every game but in my mind I’m happy to stay. You know, that depends on a lot of aspects and different situations. But my will is to stay. I’m happy here, my family is happy here.

"I’m still hungry for titles and for delivering good performances. I still want to play at the top level for as long as I can. So that’s my thinking on that. My agent is talking with the club. Yes I feel (as good as ever), of course. In some games, we don’t have the result we want but that’s football, that’s part of football and you just have to keep working hard, having the right motivation to do stuff.

"The same motivation I had coming into today, I had in the other games. This is the game that you want to happen all the time but you know that is not the reality. You’re going to have to deal with different situations and you just need to stay calm, work hard and the result will come in the future.”

Whilst at Liverpool Alisson has twice won the Premier League's Golden Glove and, back in 2019, became the first winner of the Yashin Trophy, which is awarded to the best goalkeeper in the world.

He's been a pillar of Liverpool's success, going back to when Jurgen Klopp first began winning honours. Another of those stalwarts has been Virgil van Dijk. The Dutch defender recently extended his time at Anfield but, now 35, the centre-halves days are ultimately numbered.
