Fabrizio Romano's latest update OPENS door to mega Liverpool transfer
Fabrizio Romano's latest update could have an impact on Liverpool.
The club's goalkeeping department has never been in better shape. Even with the departure of Caoimhin Kelleher, Liverpool have one of the best goalkeeping trio in the world right now.

Alisson Becker is the best goalkeeper in the world without a shadow of a doubt. He proved that throughout the course of last season, most notably with his heroics against Paris Saint Germain.
Behind him Liverpool are now going to add a brilliant goalkeeper in Giorgi Mamardashvili, who has excelled for Valencia over the last few seasons and proved his quality for Georgia at Euro 2024, with some sublime performances to secure qualification into the knock-out round for his team.
Mamardashvili will now be looking to compete with Alisson for the no.1 spot, meanwhile behind them the Reds have recruited Armin Pecsi, who is one of the highest rated young goalkeepers in Europe as the club's third choice goalkeeper.
Pecsi has played over 50 games for Puskas Akademia in Hungary and is only 20-years-old. He comes as a Golden Boy nominee, and is currently ranked second among goalkeepers for the prestigious award.

Liverpool have always wanted to create this kind of environment. With Vitezslav Jaros going on loan to Ajax, there is the potential for the Reds to have another really exciting goalkeeper in a few years time as well.
On top of that, there are high hopes about Kornel Misciur, who has produced some fantastic performances at academy level over the course of the last season.
But that doesn't mean there is no room for investment. Last summer Liverpool were interested in Anthony Patterson of Sunderland, who led the English club back to the Premier League during the 2024/25 campaign.
A move for Patterson never materialised last year but Liverpool must still keep him on their radar considering he has been brilliant in the Championship.
And now there may be a door opening for the club to sign the talented young goalkeeper.

Liverpool can replace Diaz with SENSATIONAL wonderkid deal
Lyon could be offloading talents But Cherki is not the only player the Reds have had their eyes on at Lyon. Malick Fofana, 20, has been on the club's radar over the course of 2025. He joined Lyon from Gent in his native Belgium last year for an initial €17m but now looks destined to leave. The winger is under contract at OL until 2028 - but it is unlikely that he sees out his deal if Lyon remain in the second division. Advertisement Last season the Belgium international scored 11 goals and provided six assists in all competitions for Lyon and was in terrific form during their UEFA Europa League run. Liverpool linked with €45m-rated Fofana Now Caught Offside is reporting that Fofana is likely to be one of the first to leave the Groupama Stadium this summer - with Liverpool named as a potential destination. 'Lyon are looking a fee in the region of €45–50 million for the young attacker despite their financial troubles,' the report reads. 'Liverpool have identified Fofana as a player who could add depth and quality to their wide options as Arne Slot looks to refresh the squad for the upcoming campaign. 'With Luis Diaz's future uncertain, he could be the ideal player to replace the Colombian at Anfield.'

Jannik Sinner won't say why he fired two team members right before Wimbledon
LONDON (AP) — Jannik Sinner confirmed that he recently fired two members of his team — fitness coach Marco Panichi and physiotherapist Ulises Badio, who themselves were replacements for people involved in the player's doping case — but declined Saturday to explain the reason for the change ahead of Wimbledon. Sinner, who has been ranked No. 1 for more than a year, said that he decided shortly after losing in the second round of the grass-court tournament in Halle, Germany, this month to make the change. Sinner has not yet found substitutes for Panichi and Badio, who both used to work with Novak Djokovic. Advertisement 'Nothing seriously bad happened. They did great work for (the past) three months. Sometimes, things happen,' Sinner said at his pre-tournament news conference. 'The timing obviously isn't the best, but having done a lot of work (together) before, it won't affect this Grand Slam a lot. I feel well physically and mentally and ready to compete.' Play begins Monday at the All England Club, where Sinner was a quarterfinalist in 2024. He will play Luca Nardi in an all-Italian matchup on Tuesday. Last year, Sinner tested positive twice for a trace amount of an anabolic steroid in March; the case wasn't made public until August, shortly before the U.S. Open, which he ended up winning for the second of his three Grand Slam titles. He initially was completely cleared, based on the defense that he accidentally was exposed to the banned substance, Clostebol, via a massage from his then-physiotherapist, Giacomo Naldi. Sinner said his fitness trainer at the time, Umberto Ferrara, purchased a product in Italy and gave it to Naldi for a cut on Naldi's finger. Naldi then treated Sinner while not wearing gloves. Advertisement The World Anti-Doping Agency appealed the exoneration, and Sinner agreed to serve a three-month ban that ended right before the Italian Open in May. On Saturday, Sinner was asked repeatedly in English and Italian what led him to part ways with Panichi and Badio. 'There's not one specific thing,' Sinner said. He was the runner-up to Carlos Alcaraz at the French Open three weeks ago, wasting a two-set lead and three match points in a final that lasted 5 1/2 hours. As for adding new team members, Sinner said Saturday: 'I haven't thought about replacements. It's not the time to think about my options. But there are a lot of options.' ___ Howard Fendrich has been the AP's tennis writer since 2002. Find his stories here: More AP tennis:
