Brazilian police said last night that the father of Liverpool goalkeeper Alison Becker drowned in a lake near his holiday home in southern Brazil.
Dorotio Machado Filho, a police inspector in Lavras de Sol, told Reuters that Jose Baker, 57, was swimming near a roadblock on his property when the crash happened on Wednesday afternoon. The police have ruled out the suspicion of murder.
Alison joined Liverpool in 2018 from Rome and was named the world’s best goalkeeper in 2019. Her younger brother Muriel plays in Fluminense, Brazil.
Internacional, for which the two brothers played, sent their condolences on their official Twitter account.
“It is with great sadness that we learned of the news of the passing of Jose Augustinho Baker, father of former goalkeepers Alison and Muriel,” the club said.
