Impressive Pre-season Sparks Transfer Interest
Italian football heavyweights Juventus are reportedly setting their sights on Liverpool’s backup goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher after a series of strong performances. The 25-year-old Irishman stood out during Liverpool’s pre-season tour in the United States, particularly shining in a 3-0 victory over Manchester United.
Juventus in Search of a New Keeper
With the Turin-based club on the hunt for a new goalkeeper, Kelleher’s recent form has placed him firmly on their radar. Observing his development closely, Juventus are considering an approach for the player who has proven to be a reliable deputy for Liverpool’s first-choice shot-stopper Alisson Becker.
Liverpool’s Price Tag for Kelleher
Should Juventus decide to firm up their interest, it is understood that Liverpool would not let their number two keeper go for less than £30 million. Kelleher, who still has two years remaining on his Anfield contract, could represent a long-term investment for Juventus, potentially offering at least five years of service between the sticks.
Competition and Career Ambitions
Despite Kelleher’s ambitions to be a starting goalkeeper, the reality at Liverpool places him behind the more experienced Alisson. Last season saw Kelleher make 26 appearances due to Alisson’s injuries, but the Irish international is open to a move that could provide him with the number one spot he seeks.
Transfer Market Heats Up
Liverpool themselves are yet to bolster their first-team squad this summer, with interests lying in Real Sociedad’s Martin Zubimendi. However, the potential acquisition is complicated by a hefty release clause. Meanwhile, the transfer market is abuzz with activity as Chelsea, Atletico Madrid, Manchester City, and Tottenham all make moves for various players across Europe.
Stay Updated on Transfer Movements
As the summer transfer window progresses, significant deals are emerging. Chelsea’s £35m agreement for Atletico Madrid’s Samu Omorodion, Conor Gallagher’s impending move, and Manchester City’s negotiations to sell Julian Alvarez are just a few of the stories creating headlines. With the clock ticking down, the transfer saga continues, promising more twists and turns in the coming days.
