According to BBC Sport, Liverpool are interested in signing Andy Lonergan on a free transfer.

It has been reported that the Reds are considering securing the services of the 35-year-old former Leeds United and Wolverhampton Wanderers goalkeeper following the injury to first-choice custodian Alisson.

Alisson suffered a calf injury during Liverpool’s Premier League game against Norwich City on Friday evening.

Familiar face

Lonergan is a free agent at the moment, having left Middlesbrough in the Championship at the end of last season.

The goalkeeper was part of the Liverpool squad for their pre-season tour of the USA as cover for Simon Mignolet.

Mignolet has since left Liverpool, who signed former West Ham United goalkeeper Adrian on a free transfer as the Belgian’s replacement.
