Liverpool have announced their fifth signing of the 2025 summer transfer window.

Liverpool fans were promised a busy summer window, and indeed, the window has been nothing short of busy so far.

Jeremie Frimpong, Armin Pecsi, Florian Wirtz and Milos Kerkez have been added to Arne Slot’s team for a combined transfer fee that is close to £200m.

And now another player has arrived, with Liverpool announcing that they will sign Freddie Woodman from Preston North End this summer.

“Liverpool are set to sign Freddie Woodman on a free transfer,” a statement in the club’s official website read.

“The 28-year-old has agreed a contract with the Reds to bolster the goalkeeping ranks upon the expiry of his previous deal with Preston North End.

“Woodman will begin pre-season training with Arne Slot’s squad when they reconvene at the AXA Training Centre next month.”

The 28-year-old has previously played in the Premier League with Newcastle United, who sold him in 2022 after a number of underwhelming loan stints away from St James’ Park.

Woodman signed a three-year deal at Deepdale, but his contract expired at the end of the season, making him an appealing target.

Liverpool have now made a move for him, and he is set to provide cover for Alisson and Giorgi Mamardashvili.
