“It’s surprising that Liverpool isn’t getting in on the action of signing players like their Premier League Rivals given that they have a new manager but now they are now about to pull off their first signing. The player is really keen on the move and his club is also ready to let go” – Liverpool transfer nears completion as Fabrizio Romano discloses player’s position on the Anfield move.

Liverpool remains the only club in Europe’s top five leagues yet to make a summer signing, but two LaLiga players could soon be headed to Anfield.

The Reds are currently focused on acquiring Real Sociedad midfielder Martin Zubimendi, who has a £51 million release clause in his contract. Reports indicate that Liverpool is willing to meet this fee, and agreeing on personal terms with Zubimendi is not expected to be problematic, despite Sociedad’s efforts to keep him.

Additionally, Liverpool manager Arne Slot is keen to secure a new goalkeeper as a long-term replacement for Alisson, with Valencia’s Giorgi Mamardashvili being his top target. Mamardashvili, 23, is regarded as one of Europe’s top young goalkeepers, having made 37 appearances for Valencia last season and keeping 13 clean sheets. His performances at Euro 2024 for Georgia have further increased interest in him.

Liverpool is reportedly pursuing Mamardashvili with plans to sign him on a permanent deal and then loan him out for the upcoming season. Although Alisson remains Liverpool’s first-choice goalkeeper, Slot appears to be planning for the future.

Fabrizio Romano has confirmed Liverpool’s genuine interest in Mamardashvili, who is open to joining the Reds and is willing to be loaned out initially. Romano noted that the decision now lies with Liverpool regarding how they want to proceed.

Spanish media suggest that Valencia might accept a bid of around £30 million for Mamardashvili. Meanwhile, Liverpool’s backup goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher is linked with a move away from Anfield in search of regular playing time, with clubs like Celtic, Nottingham Forest, and Wolves showing interest in the Republic of Ireland international.
