One Liverpool star is top target of Chelsea this summer. The Blues are ready to spend as high as £40 million in order to sign him after the end of the season.
The star in question here is Caoimhin Kelleher who is second choice keeper of Liverpool. He has proved himself on multiple occasions but still finds him behind Allison. In addition, he will stay as second choice even after the departure of Brazilian keeper in future.
The Reds have signed Mamardashvilii who will join the club this summer. He will take over Allison as a first choice keeper. Hence, it will prove very hard for Liverpool to keep hold of Kelleher. Kelleher will force a move as he wants to play regularly.
Kelleher is 26 year old and he will not like to spend most of his peak career on bench. In addition, sitting on bench may also affect his chances of playing for his country – Ireland. Hence, it is very likely that he will move away this summer.
Chelsea keen to sign Caoimhin Kelleher this summer
Football Insider have reported that Kelleher has strong interest from Chelsea. The Blues are ready to spend as high as £40 million to sign him this summer. Kelleher may agree the deal as it will allow him to stay in Premier League and continue to prove himself at highest stage.
Chelsea are in desperate need to sign a keeper this summer. They are very likely to part ways with Robert Sanchez. The Spaniard has failed to impress the club and hence the club is keen to replace him.
Kelleher has proved himself on English soil and hence he can be a great addition to the Chelsea squad. He can be viewed as player having instant impact on the squad. It will be interesting to see if Chelsea are able to land him this summer.
