Liverpool goalkeeper Vitezslav Jaros will team up with former Reds assistant coach John Heitinga at Ajax with a loan move close to being agreed for the 23-year-old.

Czech goalkeeper Jaros served as third-choice stopper for the Reds in the past season, making two appearances for the first-team.

Last October he came on for the final 11 minutes of the 1-0 Premier League victory at Crystal Palace following an injury to Alisson Becker, with Caoimhin Kelleher absent at Selhurst Park through illness.



He followed that up by playing the full 90 minutes as the Reds beat Brighton 3-2 in the Carabao Cup later that same month.

Heitinga has now identified Jaros as the perfect addition to his goalkeeping ranks after joining Ajax as the new head coach, and he'll be eyeing the No.1 spot after 41-year-old veteran Remko Pasveer played 43 times in the past season in all competitions.

The loan will be Jaros' fifth away from Liverpool, but the first since he has tasted first-team football for the Reds.

He has previously had temporary stints at St Patrick's Athletic in Ireland, Football League pair Notts County and Stockport County and Austrian side Sturm Graz, where he won a league and cup double.

Jaros is expected to sign a new long-term contract at Anfield prior to making the move to Amsterdam, with his switch coming at a time of huge change in the goalkeeping ranks at Anfield.

With Kelleher having joined Brentford in an £18m deal this summer, Georgia international Giorgi Mamardashvili will link up with the Reds a year after agreeing his move from Valencia.

Mamardashvili is primed to serve as Alisson's deputy in the coming season, with the No.3 role perhaps taken by new arrival Armin Pecsi, with the 20-year-old having completed a £1.5m move from Hungarian side Puskas Akademia last week.

There are high hopes for the Hungary under-21 international, with his compatriot and new Reds team-mate Dominik Szoboszlai revealing his role in the move.

Speaking to Hungarian outlet Nemzeti Sport about his message to Pecsi, Szoboszlai said: “I say, come there and enjoy it!

Hard work will pay off in time.”
