According to Fabrizio Romano, Liverpool have reached a contract agreement with Valencia and the player himself—goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili—with a unique phased plan:
- Mamardashvili will spend the 2025–26 season on loan at Bournemouth, acclimating to English football.
- He will officially join Liverpool during the summer of 2026.

Romano explained:
“Liverpool and Giorgi Mamardashvili have an agreement on contract terms… the plan is for him to spend next season at Bournemouth, and then in 2025 become a Liverpool player.”

This move isn’t just about securing a promising talent—it reflects long-term planning and a strategic approach to integration, especially in a position like goalkeeper where experience is invaluable.
Is It Worth the Wait?
- Yes, because the player is already contractually committed to Liverpool, giving them exclusivity over his services in 2026.
- However, no immediate benefit is gained this season—Liverpool won’t have him available until after 2025–26.
- The structure allows him to adapt without the pressure of a top-tier role at Anfield immediately.
Summary: Liverpool have locked in Mamardashvili now, but won’t see him in action for the club until 2026. The move blends forward-thinking recruitment with phased integration.
