Liverpool’s five potential Caoimhín Kelleher replacement.

Caoimhín Kelleher has acknowledged that in order to become a first-choice goalkeeper, he might need to leave Liverpool. Numerous stoppers have already been proposed as alternatives.

This summer, Liverpool might search for a new goalkeeper following Caoimhín Kelleher’s admission that his future might be elsewhere. During Alisson Becker’s injury absence, Kelleher performed admirably and made more first-team appearances than in any previous season at Anfield.

However, Kelleher returned to a supporting role after the Brazilian regained fitness, and he says he is ready to take the starting position going forward. This summer, the 25-year-old intends to speak with Arne Slot about his future.

“My main ambition is to be a No.1, and it would be great if that happened at Liverpool, but I’m not silly,” he stated to The Athletic. I am aware that Ali has long since established himself as the world’s finest goalie.

“I do believe that becoming a No. 1 is the next step for me, whether it’s here at Liverpool or someplace else. I’ve had a great time at Liverpool, and maybe I’ll be here for more.

However, I believe my time as a No. 2 is over.” Following Kelleher’s transfer admission, Liverpool.com has examined the Republic of Ireland international’s possible successors in the event that his departure is verified.

Bijlow Justin

It has been predicted that Justin Bijlow, the goalkeeper for Feyenoord, will follow Arne Slot to Anfield this summer. According to The Mirror, Liverpool is also interested in signing him, but Arsenal has set him as a $13 million (£10 million/€12 million) goal.

Over the past three seasons, Bijlow has worked closely with Slot and indicated that he would be interested in moving to the Premier League. “Will I stay at Feyenoord?” he asked Voetbalzone. I mean, you never know. Football is like that; you never know.

“I’m open to it if the chance arises and a decent club comes from overseas. Naturally, it’s wonderful to be acknowledged at prestigious clubs.”

Alex McCarthy

Several teams are reportedly keeping an eye on former England stopper Alex McCarthy, including Liverpool. The 34-year-old, whose contract expires this summer, assisted Southampton in winning promotion to the Premier League through the play-offs.

The Daily Mail claims that Newcastle and Celtic are also considering him, but Southampton is organising negotiations to cling onto him. McCarthy has played in the Premier League, but at this point in his career, he might want to stay at the top, and that won’t happen at Anfield.

Following Southampton’s victory over Leeds at Wembley to secure promotion, manager Russell Martin of Southampton intends to speak with McCarthy and other players who are not under contract.

James Trafford 

Liverpool may try to sign James Trafford this summer in an attempt to take advantage of Burnley’s drop to the Championship. The England Under-21 goalie only made the switch from Manchester City to Turf Moor a year ago.

He was cut from the squad at the end of the season, but he is reportedly eager to get back to the top division. According to Football Insider, Burnley would want for roughly $26 million (£20 million/€24 million) for Trafford during the transfer season.

To replace No. 1 Nick Pope this summer, Newcastle is also interested in signing him, so the Reds will have competition for his services.

Anthony Patterson

Patterson Anthony Anthony Patterson, the custodian for Sunderland, has also been connected to the Reds in recent months. The 23-year-old has shown promise in the Championship, and according to HITC, Liverpool and Arsenal are interested in signing him.

Both clubs are rumoured to have sent scouts to observe Patterson’s growth, and he is expected to cost roughly $15 million (£12 million/€14 million). Though it’s unclear if he would be willing to leave Sunderland, the chance to collaborate with Alisson might be too wonderful to pass up. His present club would love to hang onto him, according to The Sunderland Echo, given that he preserved 10 clean sheets in the second division this season.

Vítězslav Jaroš

Goalkeeper Vítězslav Jaroš may be given the opportunity by Liverpool to make a statement following an outstanding loan stint with Sturm Graz. After relocating to Austria in January, the 22-year-old played in 21 different events.

His efforts enabled Sturm Graz to win the Austrian Bundesliga, and as a result, he was selected for the Czech Republic’s provisional roster for the upcoming European Championships this summer.

Throughout his loan stint, the Reds have kept an eye on his development. Jaroš disclosed that he had frequent correspondence regarding his progress and achievements with John Achterberg, the leaving Liverpool coach.
