Jurgen Klopp forced into Liverpool transfer rethink thanks to Man Utd pursuit

Manchester United 's pursuit of Brentford goalkeeper David Raya could leave Jurgen Klopp with a transfer headache.

That's because Brentford are reportedly eyeing Liverpool No.2 Caoimhin Kelleher to succeed contract rebel Raya, who United hope can challenge David de Gea for the gloves at Old Trafford next season after completing a deal worth up to £35million. Kelleher, 24, has been forced to play second fiddle to the brilliant and reliable Alisson Becker ever since breaking through at Anfield.

The Republic of Ireland international has enjoyed some spectacular moments, such as shining in the 2022 Carabao Cup final victory over Chelsea on penalties, but is itching for first-team football after another campaign largely spent on the bench. With Brentford set to need a new shot-stopper, the Bees are plotting a move which would leave Klopp searching to find a new understudy.
