Chelsea are showing interest in one Liverpool star ahead of the summer window. The player has proved himself in Premier League and played a big role for the Reds. But, he is likely to move away from Anfield this summer.
The star in question here is Irish keeper Caoimhin Kelleher. He is 26 years old and has been with the Reds since academy days. Kelleher has played a major role for the club in absence of Allison. He has so far played 67 games for the senior Liverpool team.
However, Kelleher is still not been made first-choice keeper. In addition, the Reds have already signed Mamardashvili who will join this summer. He will be made first choice keeper after Allison moves away from the Anfield.
Hence, Kellher is open to moving away from Liverpool. The Reds are likely to allow him as they can’t hold the player against his will. The 26 year old is looked upon by multiple clubs across whole Europe. But, it looks like the Irishman will prefer to stay in England for now.
Chelsea to sign Kelleher this summer?
Chelsea have shown interest in Caoimhin Kelleher since a long time. Now, the Athletic have confirmed that the 26 year old will be available in the summer market. Hence, the Blues can be seen making moves for him very soon.
Chelsea are keen to sign a new keeper as Robert Sanchez has failed to impress. The Spaniard is linked with exit for failing to keep clean sheets. In addition, Filip Jorgensen is very young and lacks experience. The Blues are not ready yet to make him their number one keeper.
Kelleher will be a very good signing for Chelsea this summer. He has proved himself in Premier League and hence will make a instant impact. In addition, he is still young and can be looked upon as long-term investment.
