Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson Becker continues to attract continued interest from Saudi Arabia. In addition, Irish goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher has been linked with an exit, while third-choice goalkeeper Adrian has refused to extend his contract and returned to Spain.
Liverpool, who may implement a goalkeeping shuffle, have a list of proven keepers from Europe and South America in case of an eventuality, and are eyeing Ukrainian goalkeeper Andriy Lunin, who made 31 appearances for Real Madrid last season, according to international The media outlet HITC reported.
He won the competition with Spanish goalkeeper Kepa, who joined the club on loan following Thibaut Courtois’ long-term injury lay-off, and earned a regular place in Carlo Ancelotti’s team. However, with the return of the Belgian national team goalkeeper in the new season, he will spend more time on the bench.
He has been on the pitch in 13 matches for his country’s full national team and started the first match of EURO 2024 against Romania, and at 25 years of age, he is at the midpoint of his career, so it is natural that he would want a club where he can stand in for Kelleher at Liverpool and play on a weekly basis.
However, all this does not mean that the Brazilian goalkeeper will be serious about acquiring a Real Madrid goalkeeper unless he chooses to leave Anfield. In the end, he will only change clubs and there is no reason for him to move to England.
With Kepa returning to Chelsea, there is no way the Spanish club will let go of their second goalkeeper and he will continue his friendly competition to become a starter at the Santiago Bernabeu.
