Chelsea have been strongly linked with AS Roma star Alisson Becker for some time, and the newest updates are interesting.

As per Marca, the Stamford Bridge outfit are edging ever closer to signing the Samba star from the Italian club. The Spanish outlet have also mentioned that the English Premier League side could match the €70million transfer fee requested by the Serie A side.

Real Madrid also keen
Marca have also stated that so far, La Liga giants Real Madrid have only tabled a transfer fee worth around €40million for the Brazil international shot stopper and Italian outfit turned down that offer.

Last term, the 25-year-old played in 49 matches across all competitions for Roma, let in 47 goals and had 22 clean sheets.

For his senior Brazil team career, so far, the ex-Internacional goalie has played 29 games for the national side and kept a total of 29 clean sheets.

In the FIFA World Cup 2018, the goalie has kept clean sheets twice in 3 matches and next up for the Brazilians is a date against Mexico.
