Solanke, speaking on Sky Sports Premier League, was asked which ofꦚ the four stoppers he found the most difficult to play against.
The Tottenham man initially shortlisted Alisson and Martinez, before opওting for the Villa man because of the “crazy saves𝓀” he pulls.

“Few times I’ve played against him and I thoug🅰ht ‘I’ve scored’, the ball wꦓas coming from across, and he’s just made the craziest save, and it’s like ‘damn’.
“He’s made some🐽 crazy saves, not just against me b💧ut just in his time as well, so he’s a great keeper – yeah it was tough between these two.”
Solanke then praised Alisson and shared 📖what he was like in training from when they were bot⛎h at Liverpool.
“Alisson’s great goa🌸lkeeper as well, knew him from my time at Liverpool as well,” said the Spurs man.
When asked about what the Reds keeper is like in training, Solanke said: “Je’s really good, grea🌞🍌t guy as well.
“But yeah, when you see it every day, like the saves he plays, like his confidence on the ball and stuff, he’s obviously a world classജ keep🦋er.
In last place, he opted for the Arsenal keeper, saying: “Th🎀at leaves me with Rayꩵa.”
Alisson suffered a concussion injury in Brazil’s World Cup qualifier aꦓgainst ൩Colombia and is now returning to Liverpool.
