Liverpool goalkeeping coach John Achterberg praises young duo.
Liverpool signed arguably the best goalkeeper in the world last summer when they bought Alisson.
Statistically the Brazilian was the best shot stopper in the Premier League last season.
So it is tough, if not impossible, for the bright young goalkeepers behind him at Anfield in the Reds’ academy.
Liverpool goalkeeping coach John Achterberg has praised Caoimhin Kelleher and Kamil Grabara, both 20-years-old.
Achterberg told the club’s official website that both are near first team standard.
He said: “The young boys, like Caoimhin Kelleher and Kamil Grabara, are also greedy to try and make the next step.
“They’re showing a very top level and are already in the first-team training.”
Both players will be hoping for chances on pre-season this summer.
Number two goalkeeper Simon Mignolet is expected to leave the club this summer in pursuit of first team opportunities.
One of the youngsters could manage to persuade Jurgen Klopp to make them one of them Alisson’s deputy next season, but for now, and the foreseeable future, that’s as good as it gets.
