Liverpool manager Arne Slot says “it’s normal” for goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher to want to play but Alisson will remain as the club’s number one.
Kelleher, 25, has made 47 appearances for Liverpool since his debut in 2019 but is looking to move, with the Reds signing Valencia goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili for next season.

During the international break the Republic of Ireland player said he was ready to leave Anfield to be a first-choice player elsewhere.
Speaking before the visit of Nottingham Forest on Saturday, Slot said: “I would be really worried if a player came out and said ‘I don’t care about playing first-team football.’ It’s normal they want to play and it’s also normal for a club like this to have more than 11 players who want to play.

“It’s a good thing he wants to play. Who knows if he’ll play for us in the future, but it’s quite clear that Alisson is the number one for this moment.”
