A European membership has made an audacious try to attempt to signal one Liverpool stalwart, who’s shortly communicated his stance on the matter.
The Reds’ goalkeeping division will look markedly completely different from subsequent season as Giorgi Mamardashvili is available in to take the place of Caoimhin Kelleher, who just lately moved to Brentford in an £18m deal.

The Turkish champions have type for cheeky pursuits of Liverpool gamers, having reportedly thought of a swoop for Ryan Gravenberch final summer time earlier than the midfielder went on to play a starring position in our subsequent Premier League triumph.
No matter hope they may’ve had of touchdown the Dutchman 13 months in the past (when he’d been a sporadic starter underneath Jurgen Klopp), their rumoured enquiry for Alisson smacks of an audacious shot in the dead of night which was by no means more likely to come off.
The 32-year-old was rightly hailed as ‘world-class‘ by BBC pundit Stephen Warnock after the Reds shocked Paris Saint-Germain on the Parc des Princes in March, and that show was reflective of an impressive season from our #1, who’s now received the top-flight title twice at Anfield.

We don’t blame Galatasaray for craving the presence of Alisson of their workforce, however fortunately the Brazilian has swiftly made it clear that he has no real interest in a transfer to Istanbul whereas he’s underneath contract at Anfield.
The plan is that Mamardashvili will succeed him as our first-choice goalkeeper in time, however the 32-year-old will stay an computerized starter when accessible for the foreseeable future, and with good motive.
