Bayern looks to be in the driving seat, and the Reds would likely have to make a huge offer in order to convince Newcastle to sell to a direct rival.When it looks as though someone like Bradley Barcola might also be available, and could potentially be secured for cheaper, then it's a bit of a no-brainer - although Liverpool should keep a close eye on Gordon in case that situation changes.Alisson Becker (Liverpool)Alisson Becker is in "advanced negotiations" to join Juventus this summer, according to Brazilian outlet Globo Esporte.Speculation that the goalkeeper could leave Liverpool has been growing recently, and this report suggests the Reds are looking to cash in on him after triggering the option for an extra year on his contract.Alisson has been linked with an exit from Liverpool this summer(Image: Getty Images)Arne Slot failed to give any assurances over his goalkeeper's future when speaking on Thursday, only to suggest that he was aware of the ongoing speculation around Alisson's future.Liverpool.com says: Slot's comments weren't all that convincing on Alisson, especially when he seemingly admitted he was aware of all the talk of a move for the goalkeeper.Given all his injury problems in recent years, Liverpool might view this as the right time for him to move on, especially since it can still get some kind of fee for him.

Still, it is a gamble offloading one of, if not THE best, goalkeepers in the world.
