Liverpool goalkeeper "most likely" to move to Ligue 1 or Bundesliga

Liverpool are set for a summer goalkeeping shakeup. The arrival of Giorgi Mamardashvili could well set off a chain reaction.

Sporting director Richard Hughes swooped for the Georgian No1 last summer - agreeing to pay Valencia an initial £24m, rising to £29m.

As part of the deal, however, the 24-year-old would remain on loan at Los Che for the 2024/25 season. Now that the LaLiga season is complete, Mamardashvili’s permanent move to Liverpool is expected to go through without any further delay.

That will in turn complications in Liverpool’s first-team goalkeeping set-up. Alisson Becker is now under renewed pressure for the starting gloves at Anfield while Caoimhin Kelleher is expected to move on.

The Irishman is attracting interest from around the Premier League with his aim of becoming a No1 goalkeeper in his own right long established.

Liverpool goalkeeping changes afoot

And there is another keeper whose future needs to be sorted as soon as possible. Liverpool No3 goalkeeper Vitezslav Jaros played his part in the Premier League title win - keeping a clean sheet as a substitute during an away game at Crystal Palace.

The 23-year-old’s terms were due to expire this summer but he put pen to paper on an extension. When Mamardashvili arrives however, he could be pushed even further down the pecking order.

So Liverpool have come up with a plan to send him on loan to either the Bundesliga or Ligue 1 - according to a source in Jaros’s native Czechia.

Jaros set for loan move

“He is a Liverpool player, where he signed a new contract,” a report in iSport reads. “That is why there is interest in him on the market.

“Vítězslav Jaroš does not yet have a real chance of becoming the first goalkeeper of the Reds, the winners of the Premier League. That is why he will go on loan in the summer.

“In the Netherlands, there is talk of Ajax's interest, but according to Sport sources, nothing like that will happen. Víťa will most likely go to one of the teams in the French Ligue 1 or the Bundesliga. In the winter window, St. Pauli was interested in Jaroš.”
