Liverpool is contemplating the potential sale of goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher amid interest from Nottingham Forest and Celtic.
Kelleher, a product of Liverpool’s esteemed youth academy, has been an integral part of the senior squad since 2019.
Demonstrating commendable form this season, he has featured in 26 matches across all competitions, notably filling in admirably during Alisson’s absence due to injury.

Nottingham Forest previously approached Liverpool regarding Kelleher’s transfer during the January window, but their bid was rebuffed.
However, reports suggest that Forest is poised to submit a renewed offer in the upcoming summer transfer window. They might encounter competition from Celtic, who also covet Kelleher’s services.
Furthermore, it’s reported that Liverpool is unlikely to impede Kelleher’s departure should he express a desire to seek more regular playing time elsewhere.

If Kelleher departs Anfield ahead of the 2024/25 season, Liverpool will need to secure a suitable replacement. Reports indicate that they are eyeing Sunderland’s Anthony Patterson for the role.
