Between 1999 and 2005, the keeper was trained by the Billy Goats. In the 2020/21 season, he already returned to his hometown on loan. Today, the 36-year-old signed a two-year contract with the FC and is expected to compete with Marvin Schwäbe for the starting position in goal.

Liverpool AGREE transfer fee; Green light on five-year contract
Liverpool have agreed a transfer fee after the player gave a green light on a five year contract. He'll now fly out to complete the move. Liverpool continue to do unprecedented levels of business in this transfer window. They've already signed a wealth of players to reshape their first-team squad and certainly aren't finished. Alexander Isak is the dream arrival, even if Newcastle United rejected a formal approach on Friday. It's thought the Reds will wait and see what happens rather than try to force that one going forward. Shop the LFC Store LFC x adidas Shop the home range today! LFC x adidas Shop the goalkeeper range today LFC x adidas Shop the new adidas range today! 🔴 Shop the LFC 2025/26 adidas home range Until then, their focus will be elsewhere. Liverpool need to move players on, many of whom have already been replaced or don't have an obvious future with the club. Darwin Nunez is heavily linked with an exit, while Federico Chiesa and Harvey Elliott could be off. It's not clear whether Ben Doak will remain on the books, either, and Ibrahima Konate's expiring contract casts his future into doubt. One player does have a clear future, however, after Liverpool agreed a fee. Tyler Morton set to join Lyon There have been strong reports in recent days that Lyon wanted to sign Tyler Morton. L'Équipe now claims that deal is fully agreed. Lyon will pay €10 million in base fee, plus up to €5 million in add-ons. It's a relatively low price but after Morton barely played last season, an understandable one. Morton has already agreed to a five-year contract with the French side. He'll now fly out there to have a medical and formally sign his deal.

VIDEO: Mason Greenwood continues red-hot form with yet another pre-season goal for Marseille against Sevilla
Greenwood firing on all cylinders Scored the only goal for his team vs Sevilla Has six strikes to his name in pre-season fixtures Follow GOAL on WhatsApp! 🟢📱 WHAT HAPPENED? Greenwood has hit the ground running this pre-season, building serious momentum ahead of the new Ligue 1 season. He announced his return in spectacular fashion with a blistering 11-minute hat-trick against Dutch lower-league side Excelsior Maassluis, a performance that immediately reignited the buzz around him. THE BIGGER PICTURE Greenwood kept the goals coming with another strike in a draw against Belgian club OC Charleroi, showcasing sharpness and clinical finishing that made him such a highly-rated talent during his early Manchester United days. The goal against Sevilla marked Greenwood's sixth of the summer, as he continues to stake his claim as one of Europe's most dangerous attacking threats ahead of the 2025–26 campaign. Marseille fans were back in the stands just weeks after celebrating the club's return to the UEFA Champions League, and Greenwood ensured the optimism continued to grow. WATCH THE CLIP DID YOU KNOW? In another key moment from the friendly clash, Marseille supporters were treated to the return of a familiar face, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. The former Arsenal striker, who rejoined the club earlier this week after a stint in Saudi Arabia, was introduced in the 70th minute to a warm reception. Despite his time away from top-tier European football, the 35-year-old forward wasted no time reminding fans of his blistering speed and attacking instincts. Aubameyang looked sharp during his cameo, making several threatening runs and linking up well with his new teammates, suggesting he could still be a vital cog in the squad. 7 WHAT NEXT? While Greenwood continues to focus on his performances, speculation regarding his future refuses to go away. The England international has reportedly attracted the attention of several high-profile clubs across Europe, and even some suitors from the ambitious Saudi Pro League. Despite the external noise, Marseille remain firm in their stance; the club has no intention of offloading their star forward. With Greenwood wearing the No.10 shirt and emerging as a talismanic figure at the Vélodrome, the club's management is keen to keep him central to their plans for the coming season.

Amateur Lottie Woad secures LPGA card, finishes third at Amundi Evian
Lottie Woad needed a top-25 finish at the Amundi Evian Championship to earn her LPGA card, but apparently, that was too easy. The No. 1 amateur took the drama out of earning her card and ratcheted it up 10 notches: Could she become the first amateur in more than 50 years to win a major? Woad, who started out the day five back, went out in 30 to heat things up in France and held a share of the lead midway through her final round with world No. 2 Jeeno Thitikul, the best player in the game without a major title. 'It seems effortless to her,' said fellow Englishwoman Karen Stupples from the broadcast booth. A disappointing par on the closing par-5 18th put Woad at 13 under for the tournament and in possession of the clubhouse lead after a final-round 64. She ultimately, however, finished one back of getting into a playoff between Grace Kim and Thitikul. In reaching 20 points, Woad becomes the first player to graduate from the tour's new LPGA Elite Amateur Pathway (LEAP) program, which launched in the fall of 2024. Woad, who won the Irish Open last week by a stunning six shots, must turn professional to join the LPGA and accept membership for the remainder of the 2025 season. She'll have membership for 2026 as well. "I'm just going to take the next week and discuss it with my family and coaches and will make a decision after that," Woad told Golf Channel's Tom Abbott after the round. The 21-year-old Florida State senior is already in the field for the ISPS Handa Women's Scottish Open by virtue of her win in Ireland. She's also already in the field for the AIG Women's British Open thanks to her top-10 finish last year at St. Andrews. 'I just don't see a weakness,' said Golf Channel lead analyst Morgan Pressel of the hard-working Woad's complete game. Woad had longtime swing coach Luke Bone on the bag at Evian. Bone began working with Woad at Farnham Golf Club when she was 7 years old and the thirtysomething instructor has had to up his teaching game as Woad upped hers. A player who thrives in the spotlight and has a flair for the dramatic, Woad birdied three of the last four holes to win the 2024 Augusta National Women's Amateur. She first rose to No. 1 on the World Amateur Golf Ranking on June 12, 2004. In her junior season at FSU, Woad won twice and never finished outside the top three until the NCAA Championship, where she took a share of eighth place.
