Everton agree surprise Liverpool transfer | OneFootball

The goalkeeping department has seen a lot of movement at Liverpool this summer.

It was an area that was always going to have a few changes. Caoimhin Kelleher had made it clear he wanted to be a first choice goalkeeper and so it was inevitable that he would move onto pastures new.

With Giorgi Mamardashvili coming in, Liverpool had already secured his replacement.

At the same time, unexpectedly Liverpool also secured the services of highly rated Hungary U21 international Armin Pecsi. The youngster is a Golden Boy nominee and already has over 50 appearances under his belt at senior level despite being only 20-years-old.

In return, Vitezslav Jaros, has been sent out on loan to Ajax Amsterdam where he is expected to work alongside former Liverpool assistant coach, Johnny Heitinga.

Harvey Davies has also gone out on loan to Crewe, which has seen Liverpool secure the services of highly experienced goalkeeper, Freddie Woodman on a free transfer.

In the coaching department, the surprise departures of Fabian Otte and Claudio Taffarel were ones that came out of nowhere. In their place Xavi Valero, who previously worked at Liverpool under Rafa Benitez, and Colin Stewart has arrived from Rangers, having previously worked with Giovanni van Bronckhorst at the club, who is now one of Arne Slot's assistant coaches.

While the loss of Otte and Taffarel are big ones, Valero is a renowned goalkeeping coach and Stewart has close to a decade of experience at Rangers, so Liverpool have brought in two very competent goalkeeper coaches.

It's going to complement a really exciting goalkeeping pool at the club. As well as the aforementioned names, there are also high hopes for Kornel Misciur, who is an exciting young goalkeeper at the academy, and who caught the eye for the U21s last season.

Meanwhile, DJ Bernard is another one to keep a close eye on, and he's expected to get his chance at U18 level this season.

But there is one goalkeeper who will not be at the club anymore. Highly rated U15 stopper Ruben Savvas has made a shock move across Merseyside.

The 14-year-old has joined Everton for a reported £200k according to LFC Next Gen on Instagram. Savvas has been called up to England's U15 side and was rated as one of the best up and coming talents in his age group at the club.

It looks like Everton have managed to convince him to leave Liverpool in what is a major coup for the club's rivals. Savvas confirmed the move himself on his Instagram account, sharing the LFC Next Gen post to his story.

The deal is pending Premier League approval but it's expected to be completed. Liverpool will hope they do not rue losing him to Everton in years to come, just like they once did with Anthony Gordon, who started out playing for the Reds' academy before switching to Everton.
