The predictions were shattered. Brazil, the overwhelming favorite to win the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022, has been eliminated by Croatia, which dreams of reaching its second consecutive final, after a 1-1 draw in 120 minutes and extra time, but emerged victorious 4-2 after a masterful penalty shootout in which Allison Becker could not help his team.

Evidently this uncertainty has caused the Reds to look for replacement options and not have to depend only on the good performances of Alisson Becker. The information that has been handled in recent days have pointed to the former Manchester United goalkeeper and also former Leicester City, Ron-Robert Zieler.

As the main candidate to occupy a place in the Reds team, being a good option to buy for its low cost and good performance, having as a good addition the fact of not occupying a position as a foreigner and knowing the environment of the Premier League.

Although his age of 33 may prove to be the only impediment of this goalkeeper, the reality is that his long experience in European soccer makes him a great piece to remain as an important reserve at Jurgen Klopp's disposal at all times. Having been capped six times for Germany between 2011 and 2015 in addition to being part of the squad that lifted the World Cup title at Brazil 2014, Zieler could end his playing days with the Reds but not at Old Trafford.

Liverpool FC is apparently looking around Germany in its search for a backup for regular goalkeeper Alisson Becker. According to a report in Bild, the Premier League club's wish list includes Patrick Drewes from SV Sandhausen and Ron-Robert Zieler from second-division side Hannover 96.
