Liverpool appointed Jurgen Klopp back in 2015 after letting go Brendan Rodgers. The German was signed to take Liverpool back to their glory days. The ex-Dortmund boss played some quality football with a depleted Liverpool squad but couldn’t win any significant silverware for a leaky backline. He pressured the club to buy Van Djik for a record fee but still fell short due to some reason. The following season, he brought in Alisson Becker from Roma and that changed everything. The Brazilian seemed to be the last puzzle in the jigsaw as Liverpool went on to win the Champions League followed by a much-awaited Premier League. Alisson Becker’s net worth grew rapidly after the move to Merseyside. Let’s take a look at his journey so far.

Life at Merseyside:
Alisson Becker’s move to Liverpool was confirmed back in 2018 for a fee of £66.8 million (€72.5 million), making him the most expensive goalkeeper of all time. The reds showed immense faith in the Brazilian and soon that faith was rewarded. He was exceptional for them from the start. Klopp’s men won the Champions League that season and Alisson was a key player. The following season they couldn’t emulate the same in Europe but Liverpool’s long wait of 30 years came to an end as they won the Premier League. His net worth grew significantly, and as of now, it is estimated at around 16 million pounds. He signed a 6 year / £46,800,000 contract with the Liverpool F.C., including an annual average salary of £7,800,000. His numbers are deservedly impressive and he is a fan-favorite among the Anfield faithful.
A huge salary and various endorsements contribute to his net worth generously. The Brazilian confessed much time that life in Merseyside has been wonderful. His performance has grown since his move gradually which is a positive thing for the reds. This new season they are looking forward to winning silverware again as they started quite wonderfully.
