Due to unresolved contract issues and possible roster changes, a number of Liverpool players are facing an unclear future with the team. The most prominent names are Trent Alexander-Arnold, Virgil van Dijk, and Mohamed Salah, all of whom are nearing the end of their current contracts at Anfield. Although the team wants to keep these important players, Liverpool is in a precarious position as a result of the delays in addressing their contract renewals. In recent weeks, there has been an increase in speculation concerning their fates. Salah has been strongly linked to a move to the Saudi Pro League, where teams are willing to make high-paying bids to sign him. In the meantime,
It is no longer a secret that Real Madrid is interested in Alexander-Arnold. According to reports, the Spanish powerhouses are eager to sign him as their next Galáctico, following in the footsteps of well-known players like Kylian Mbappé and Jude Bellingham. However, outfield players are not the only ones with contract uncertainties. Jan Molby, a former midfielder for Liverpool, has expressed worries over the team’s goalkeeping staff’s future. Molby claims that after Giorgi Mamardashvili joins Liverpool next summer, both Alisson Becker and Caoimhin Kelleher may depart. During the most recent transfer window, the Reds acquired the Georgian goalie, but they promptly loaned him to Valencia. Next season, Mamardashvili is anticipated to join the team, which could provide problems for Kelleher and Alisson.
Molby clarified in an interview with the Anfield Index: “Mamardashvili is certainly on loan at Valencia, and they moved swiftly because they evidently believed he was worth the money. You get the impression that Alisson Becker could want to try something different, even if he has never openly stated that he wants to quit. Furthermore, Mamardashvili is probably being developed as our first-choice goalkeeper, not only to be a bench warmer. Molby also highlighted Kelleher’s difficulties, since he has primarily been Alisson’s backup at Liverpool. “Kelleher is aware that Alisson will return to the bench as soon as he recovers from his injury. Goalkeeping options still need to be improved by teams like Chelsea and Spurs.
and it would be difficult for Kelleher and Liverpool to say no if opportunities presented themselves. Molby continued, “I wouldn’t be shocked if both of our first- and second-choice goalkeepers left next summer.” After winning almost all of the major awards with Liverpool, Alisson might think about moving to look for a new challenge. Kelleher, a very skilled goalie, is probably going to look for regular playing time elsewhere in the interim. He is too talented at the age of 24 to be used just in Alisson’s absence. With both Alisson and Kelleher possibly leaving, and important players like Salah, Van Dijk, and Alexander-Arnold having unresolved contract issues, Liverpool may be preparing for a significant roster revamp. As he negotiates the situation, manager Arne Slot might be compelled to go through a rebuilding period.
