Liverpool are on the verge of securing their first signing under new manager Arne Slot, with a deal for Valencia goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili reportedly in its final stages.
According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, talks between Liverpool and Valencia are set to continue today to finalize the details of the Georgian goalkeeper’s move to Anfield.
Romano has confirmed that all parties are eager to complete the deal this week, which would see Mamardashvili remain at Valencia on loan for at least one more season. This arrangement would allow the 23-year-old to continue gaining valuable experience in La Liga while Liverpool solidifies its plans for the future.
Solid planning for life after Alisson with Giorgi Mamardashvili
Liverpool fans have been eagerly waiting for a new signing this summer, and the arrival of Mamardashvili could be the answer.
While the Reds already have a world-class goalkeeper in Alisson Becker, this move is being seen as smart long-term planning by the club. The presence of the Brazilian shot-stopper and backup keeper Caoimhin Kelleher may raise questions about the need for another top-quality goalkeeper, but securing Mamardashvili could be a strategic move for the future.
At just 23 years old, Mamardashvili has shown great promise in Spain, and his continued development at Valencia could make him a perfect successor to Alisson when the time comes.
If all three goalkeepers end up at Liverpool together, it would be a good problem for Arne Slot to have, providing healthy competition in a critical position.
This deal ensures that Liverpool has a strong backup plan in place for when Alisson eventually decides to move on.
For now, Mamardashvili will continue to play top-level football in La Liga, preparing for the day he steps into the spotlight at Anfield. The final details are expected to be ironed out soon, with the Reds set to announce their first signing of the summer.
