Arsenal forward Gabriel Martinelli has raved about Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson on Sky Sports.

Martinelli, who is a rising star at Arsenal, and Liverpool ace Alisson play for the Brazil national football team.

The two Premier League-based players are part of the Brazil squad for the 2022 World Cup finals in Qatar.

Martinelli said about Alisson: “He is so good. When I was in the national team last time, when we played against Japan and South Korea, I remember when we were in training, I came one-v-one with him. It is so difficult. He is so big.”

One of the best

In our opinion, Liverpool and Brazil star Alisson is one of the best goalkeepers in the world.

The £190,000-a-week (SalarySport) has been one of the few Liverpool players who have done consistently well this season.

The 30-year-old is at the top of his game now, and there are no signs that he is slowing down.

Martinelli is one of the best young forwards around, and the Arsenal star raving about Alisson and saying how tough he is to beat in training underlines how highly the former AS Roma star is rated in the footballing community.

Alisson has won the Premier League and the UEFA Champions League with Liverpool in his career so far, and we should not be surprised if he ends up winning the World Cup with Brazil this year.
