Matt Turner: Liverpool Dismiss Nottingham Forest's Offer for Kelleher
Matt Turner and Liverpool's Transfer Strategy
In a bold move, Liverpool has firmly dismissed a cash plus player offer from Nottingham Forest for goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher. The proposed deal fell short of the Merseyside club's valuation of £25 million to £30 million, indicating Liverpool's determination to keep Kelleher before the transfer deadline.
Kelleher's Status and Future
Nottingham Forest is contemplating various goalkeeper options while retaining a long-standing interest in Kelleher, particularly after a previous approach was rejected. The 25-year-old has expressed his ambition to be a No. 1 keeper, having already showcased his skills as a reliable backup to Alisson at Anfield. Kelleher's contract extends for another two years, solidifying his place within the squad.
- Earlier this week, Liverpool secured a £29 million deal for Georgia goalkeeper from Valencia.
- This player will stay at his current club until July 2025.
- Liverpool continues to count on Kelleher's experience and talent this season.
- The club's fourth-choice senior goalkeeper is also set to join a Scottish Championship team on loan.
