Liverpool boss Klopp warns Roma: Drop Alisson price or...

Liverpool have told AS Roma to drop their price for Alisson Becker or no deal will be considered.

The Mirror says despite reports from the player's home country claiming a Reds bid of £60m has been lodged, the Anfield recruitment team have made no such offer as they accept any deal is highly unlikely.

Roma are still smarting from criticism over last summer's sale of Mo Salah to Liverpool for less than £40m, and have slapped a prohibitive price tag on Alisson as they maintain they don't want to sell.

That fee is thought to be in excess of £70m, and with Roma adamant they won't budge on that valuation, Jurgen Klopp has told his board he's not interested any where near that figure.

And with Atletico Madrid keeper Jan Oblak also priced out of range, that will see the Anfield boss reassess his plans this summer, as he looks for a new signing in goal.
