Former Liverpool striker, Michael Owen has named Alisson Becker as the best goalkeeper in the world at the moment.

Owen said this after Becker’s impressive display in Liverpool’s Premier League come-back 2-1 win against Crystal Palace on Saturday at Selhurst Park.

Recall that two goals from Mohamed Salah and Harvey Elliott gave Liverpool the victory over Crystal Palace.

“This is why Alisson is, in my opinion, the best in the world,” Owen told Premier League Productions.

“Yes, he gets some help from the post. But it is a world-class save – pure world-class – and Alisson is brilliant.”

Becker has been Liverpool’s first-choice goalkeeper for the past few years.

The Brazilian international joined Jurgen Klopp’s side from AS Roma in 2018.
