New club confirmed as goalkeeper agrees deal to leave Liverpool
Liverpool have turned over a few different goalkeepers this summer.
The changes are an attempt to give experience to those who need it and to replenish the stocks with players that have shown potential to challenge for the No. 1 role in the first team in the future.

We have already seen Caoimhin Kelleher get the permanent move that he desired to Brentford, where he will be playing regular Premier League football out of Alisson Becker's shadow.
But it now appears as though another outgoing move has been sanctioned in the department.
Liverpool loan out Ojrzynski
Jakub Ojrzynski might not be a name you're familiar with, but the 22-year-old has been with the club since 2019 and he featured in a Premier League squad in the 2020/21 season in Jurgen Klopp's tenure at the club, although he didn't make an appearance for the first-team that day.
Across his entire Liverpool career, from working in the academy, to signing a professional contract, the Pole has been developing at a steady rate, going out on loan moves to improve his game.
However, he has constantly struggled to break through into the first-team squads on a regular basis, as Alisson and Kelleher have always been ahead of him, alongside Adrian for a period as well.
At the start of the summer, his contract ran out and Ojrzynski became a free agent and he has subsequently secured a permanent move to Orebro SK in Sweden, signing a contract until 2026.
The club's Sports Director Enes Ahmetovic announced the move in a statement which said: "It feels good to welcome "Kuba" to OSK. We are getting a goalkeeper whose main qualities are found in the air and reflexes. He is a big guy at 196 centimetres, but despite his height he is very athletic."
The player added: "I am very excited to come to OSK and can't wait to meet and start the hard work with my teammates, coaches and everyone at the club. I don't really like to talk myself up, but I am looking forward to the challenge we have ahead of us and hope that I can show all my supporters my best qualities on the pitch."
Given Liverpool have Viteslav Jaros, Armin Pecsi, Giorgi Mamardashvili and Freddie Woodman at the club to back-up Alisson, with Harvey Davies set to join next summer, Ojrznski wasn't going to play.

The move will hopefully help his career to blossom in a new environment and Liverpool fans will no doubt wish him all the best. Not every player's time on Merseyside works out how it's envisioned.
