Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool have reportedly told Celtic target Caoimhin Kelleher that he can leave on loan in the summer transfer window.
Liverpool ready to loan out Celtic target Caoimhin Kelleher
90min have reported that Liverpool are ready to send Kelleher on loan for next season.
The Merseyside club reportedly want to find a Premier League club for the Republic of Ireland international goalkeeper.
Scottish Premiership giants Celtic have been linked with the 24-year-old, described by Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp as “absolutely insane” and “the best No.2 in the world” in The London Evening Standard in February 2022.
According to The Transfer Room in March, Celtic, Aston Villa and Leicester City all are interested in signing Kelleher from Premier League giants Liverpool in the summer transfer window.
HITC Verdict: Encouraging for Celtic
In our view, that Liverpool are willing to send Caoimhin Kelleher out on loan is very encouraging for Celtic.
Yes, the Reds would ideally want a Premier League club for the goalkeeper, but Celtic are a massive club who are set to win the Scottish Premiership title this season and feature in the UEFA Champions League for next campaign.
Now, Joe Hart has done well for the defending Scottish champions, but the former Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur goalkeeper is not getting any younger.
Alisson is the number one goalkeeper at Liverpool, and Kelleher is unlikely to get too many chances at Anfield next season.
A move to Celtic on loan would be perfect for Kelleher.
