Liverpool could agree a swap deal with Juventus amid internal doubts over the Anfield star’s future this season, according to reports.
Liverpool are gearing up for an important summer with high-profile departures confirmed
Liverpool are preparing for a major reset this summer, with two of their most influential players set to leave.
The confirmed exits of Mohamed Salah and Andy Robertson signal the end of a clear era at Anfield, forcing the club into a period of major change.
Salah’s departure will leave a huge gap in Liverpool’s attack.
Over the years, he has been very focused, delivering goals, consistency and quality moments in big games. Changing that output will not be easy, and is expected to be one of the club’s priorities in the transfer market.
Robertson’s exit carries similar weight.
The left-back, who is set to join Tottenham if they avoid relegation, has been a key figure in Liverpool’s system, known for his strength, delivery and leadership.
The Scotland captain’s presence on and off the field will not be felt, and the team is now facing the challenge of finding a replacement to step into his shoes.
Not just Robertson: FSG have no business selling Liverpool’s £30m talent
Liverpool are expected to make drastic changes in the summer transfer window again.
This confirmed departure underscores the extent of ongoing change.
Liverpool are not just changing the team, they are reshaping us.
The focus is on building a side that can compete at the highest level in time and prepare for the future, a balancing act that will define their summer business.
Recruitment plans are already underway in many areas of the pitch, and while attacking and strengthening the defense are the obvious priorities, there is also growing attention in the goalkeeping department.
Liverpool could beat Juventus in exchange for Michele Di Gregorio
Giorgi Mamadashvili, who completed his transfer from Valencia last summer, remains highly regarded.
However, there are lingering doubts behind the scenes at Anfield about whether he is ready to take on a leading role, according to TEAMtalk’s Graeme Bailey.
The club are willing to manage his development carefully rather than overload him too soon, and that uncertainty has opened up other opportunities.
Liverpool now face a situation that could completely overhaul their goalkeeping set-up, with Juventus reported as strong suitors to sign Alisson after identifying the Brazilian as a key target as they look to strengthen between the posts.
Alisson has been a key figure on Merseyside since his arrival, widely regarded as one of the best goalkeepers in world football.
However, interest from Italy is growing, and there is growing belief that he could be open to a new challenge at this stage of his career, with Juve said to be in talks.
What makes the situation particularly attractive is the potential deal structure.
TEAMtalk suggest Juventus could offer Michele Di Gregorio as part of a swap deal, giving Liverpool an immediate replacement if they decide to let Alisson join the Serie A giants.
Such a move can signal a big change.
Alisson’s presence has provided stability and confidence for years, but Liverpool are clearly considering their long-term options. A deal that brings in another experienced goalkeeper could help ease that transition.
Di Gregorio has built a strong reputation in Italy as the ‘unusual boy’ and could be seen as a reliable option at the top level.
While he won’t carry the same global profile as Alisson, he is a solid Italy international and could fit into the team without a long adjustment period.

This approach will also protect Mamadashvili’s development. Rather than being exposed immediately, he would have the opportunity to continue to develop while competing against an established alternative.
From Juventus’ point of view, the appeal is clear.
They are looking for a proven, quality goalkeeper, and Alisson fits that requirement perfectly. His experience and track record make him the right person to lead their next project.
