It appears Alisson is not only a great keeper but also a classy guy.

The brilliant Brazilian was snapped up by Liverpool who fended off fierce competition from Chelsea and Real Madrid to land the AS Roma keeper.

Liverpool secured his services ahead of the new season by tabling a world record deal (£62 million) for a goalkeeper.

He's expected to replace Loris Karius in goal for Liverpool's opening Premier League fixture against West Ham United.

Despite being drafted in to become the clubs new No.1, Alisson will reportedly turn down the No.1 shirt out of respect to Karius.

The German currently wears the No.1 jersey at Liverpool, but Alisson is set to opt for the No.13 shirt according to Brazilian outlet UOL.

Meanwhile, on Tuesday, Alisson took part in his first Liverpool training session, and made an instant impression by producing heroics between the sticks.

He pulled off a stunning save to the delight of Liverpool fans.

It may have been his first day, but the 25-year-old already feels at home.

"It has been a great day which I had been looking forward to," he told Liverpool FC.

Alisson added: "I've had a good few resting days with my family but we all couldn't wait to get the new season under way soon.

"It's only my first day and I feel at home already!

"I've met some of my teammates and had my first morning session but the day isn't over yet as we'll carry on training this afternoon."
