Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson training with brother at Fluminense

Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson is using his Premier League winter break to train with his brother in Brazil.

Globo Esporte report that the 27-year-old has been training alongside his older brother Muriel, 32, also a goalkeeper at Brazilian Serie A club Fluminense in Rio de Janeiro.

Alisson has claimed he “doesn't want to lose his form."

The Brazil number one has conceded just six goals in 17 Premier League games so far this season and is joint leader as he looks to retain the Golden Glove – he currently has nine clean sheets along with Dean Henderson and Nick Pope despite the Sheffield United and Burnley men having played 23 and 25 games each respectively.
