Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Alisson has passed a medical with Liverpool FC and will imminently join the Anfield club.
The Brazilian international has agreed a long-term contract with the Reds understood to be six years and making him one of the best-paid goalkeepers on the planet.
As well as a bumper deal for 25 year old, Liverpool will fork out a world-record fee of £66m to sign the goalkeeper from Roma and fill a huge position of need.
Jurgen Klopp has suggested that Alisson may well be his final signing of the summer, though interest in Lyon’s Nabil Fekir could be reignited should club president Jean-Michel Aulas budge on his asking price.
A deal was put on ice earlier this summer and at this stage the World Cup winner is remaining with the Ligue 1 side.
Danny Ward is set to leave Merseyside in the wake of Alisson’s arrival, with Leicester City among the clubs interested in him. City are bracing themselves for a bid from Chelsea for Kasper Schmeichel should Thibaut Courtois join Real Madrid.
