The Georgia goalkeeper was signed in the summer by the Reds but he will not be joining the club until at least next season.

Mamardashvili was present at the Ballon d’Or ceremony on Monday night and he admitted that winning the Ballon d’Or for a shot-stopper is a monumental task.

The Liverpool out-on-loan star, though, insisted he is very young and admitted he will work to win the prestigious trophy one day.

“I have always had the dream of being here at least once. I am very happy today”, Mamardashivili told Spanish broadcaster Movistar Plus at the Ballon d’Or ceremony.

“It is always difficult, but a goalkeeper has to have an impressive season to win a Ballon d’Or and I hope that one day that can happen.

“We [goalkeepers] have to work hard, we are still young. We and many others who are there.”

Mamardashvili has started all league games this season for Valencia and he will be looking to impress the Reds boss Arne Slot with his performances for a potential crack at the team, next term.
