Liverpool is close to signing a new goalkeeper following the departure of Caoimhin Kelleher — although he will not assume the role of the Reds' back-up goalkeeper next season.

That spot will still go to Giorgi Mamardashvili, who is set to move to Anfield a year on from agreeing to join the Reds, and no doubt has Alisson's No.1 jersey in his sights.

The Reds do, though, appear to be planning for the future, as they move towards an agreement to sign 20-year-old goalkeeper Armin Pecsi from Hungarian club Puskas Akademia.



The youngster is said to be viewed as Hungary's next big goalkeeper prospect after Peter Gulacsi, who coincidentally also joined Liverpool earlier on in his career.

Liverpool.com understands Pecsi has said yes to a deal to join the Reds, agreeing terms on what is set to be a club-record deal for his current club.

Reflecting on his exit from Anfield and his arrival at his new club, Kelleher said: “I’m buzzing, I’m really happy to be here.

“I don’t think it was very difficult for me to leave [Liverpool]

Once I knew Brentford was in for me, it was definitely one I was really excited about and wanted to do as quickly as possible.

“When I come back for pre-season, all focus will be on what I want to do next year; to work on certain goals and what I need to improve on, and to have a really good season for Brentford."

Liverpool's new No.2 goalkeeper, Mamardashvili, confirmed last month that he will move to Anfield at the end of the season after there were some suggestions that he might spend another season at Valencia.

"I’ll go to Liverpool and give my all, just like I did at Valencia," Mamardashvili said
