Former Liverpool star labelled 'one of the world's best' after Champions League heroics

Former Liverpool star Simon Mignolet has been labelled “one of the world’s best goalkeepers” after his recent heroics for Club Brugge in the Champions League.

Mignolet spent six years on Merseyside from 2013-19, during which time he made 204 appearances for the Reds. He was sold to Club Brugge in 2019 for a fee that could reach up to €9m (£7.5m), which led to the club bringing in Adrian on a free transfer as back-up to Alisson Beck. who had arrived the previous summer.

Since leaving Anfield, Mignolet has been a success back in his homeland with Club Brugge. And this term, it seems, has been the most impressive yet from the 34-year-old.
