Cruzeiro striker Alisson has openly admitted he would like to play for the 13 time Premier League Champions. 

The 22 year old, full name Alisson Eular de Freitas Castro currently plies his trade Brazilian Serie A and is just starting to make a name for himself after a loan spell at Vasco Da Gama in 2013.

The forward who can also play attacking midfield does however have his feet firmly on the ground and would welcome any move to Europe in the future; 

He told Goal: “I think Juventus is a great team, I really admire even Manchester United.  

“I’d like to play for one of these clubs, but I’m a professional, so if you were to get some other European team with a good offer to refuse.  But Juventus and Manchester United are really great.” 

Alisson has won back to back titles with Cruzeiro in recent seasons and if he were to make anything like the impact youngster Anthony Martial has made at Old Trafford then Louis Van Gaal would have an absolute gem on his hands. 

Nonetheless, there is no indication the United hierachy are watching the 22 year old, but you never know if Alisson can make a telling impact for his current club this campaign then some important clubs in Europe may begin to stand up and take note.
