Caoimhin Kelleher is ready to leave Anfield in the summer as he looks for regular first-team football (According to reports)
The Republic of Ireland international has been in brilliant form while covering Alisson this season
Kelleher has made 26 starts in all competitions for Liverpool this term but Alisson is still the undisputed number one
His brilliant form in Alisson’s absence has seen Kelleher linked to Premier League sides Wolves and Nottingham Forest, while Scottish Premiership side Celtic are understood to be keen on the Irishman.
Now Football Insider claim that Kelleher ‘wants to leave’ Liverpool and the Reds ‘expect’ him to ‘push for a summer exit as he looks to take his career to the next level’.
Klopp blocked a move to Wolves in the last summer transfer window, ‘a summer exit is now increasingly likely’ with Liverpool valuing the goalkeeper at around £20m.
Patrik Berger thinks Kelleher should be a number one at another Premier League club because of the amount of points he’s saved the Reds this season.

“Jurgen can rotate players and change the formation to fit certain players in there. With keepers, it is just different,”
“Alisson is number one, so as a number two you don’t get that many games. But Kelleher has kept us in so many games since he has come in. Thanks to him, we are where we are, because he has saved us so many points already this season
“He is definitely a number one keeper in the Premier League somewhere, I would love him to stay at Liverpool, but he would be looking to go somewhere and play.
“It’s a waste of time if you’re just sitting on the bench, so I don’t know what the contract situation is, but he has had the taste of being number one and he is too good to be a number two in my opinion.”
