Incoming Chelsea manager Maurizio Sarri is allegedly eyeing AS Roma shot-stopper Alisson as his dream acquisition according to a report by Daily Star.
Sarri want Brazilian
The report suggests that the Italian tactician’s perfect replacement for Belgium international and Chelsea’s first choice goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois would be the first choice goalkeeper of Brazil National team.
The Brazil international goalie is presently representing his nation at the ongoing FIFA World Cup in Russia for the South American Nation, where he has played from the start in their opening two matches of the global showpiece.
The South American has been strongly linked with Merseyside giants Liverpool and current Champions League holders Real Madrid over the last few months.
Real Madrid keen on Chelsea star
The Los Blancos are believed to be leading the race at this very moment, but 2017 Premier League champions Chelsea could make a move and agree to a deal.
The Belgium international goalkeeper’s future at Stamford bridge remains very uncertain, with a year remaining on his current deal with the West London club.
The Chelsea first choice goalie Courtois, like Alisson, has been tipped with a move to the Spanish La Liga outfit Real Madrid to move even closer to his immediate family in Madrid, Spain.
Its widely expected that Sarri would be unveiled as Chelsea’s head coach next week, with manager Antonio Conte set to depart Stamford Bridge.
