Liverpool goalkeeper suffered heart attack during routine fitness test before tip off led to major transfer

Liverpool look set to be in the market for a new goalkeeper this summer, with Caoimhin Kelleher tipped to move on in search of starting football, and third-choice shot-stopper Adrian out of contract.

The Irishman has impressed whenever turned to by Jurgen Klopp in recent seasons, making 20 appearances and lifting the Premier League, Champions League, European Super Cup, FA Cup, and League Cup along the way. He played a vital role in the latter in particular, and was the hero at Wembley as the Reds beat Chelsea on penalties to clinch the first half of a domestic cup double last season.

However, since last year's League Cup final, the 24-year-old has made just three appearances for Liverpool. With Alisson Becker the Reds' undisputed first-choice goalkeeper, it is understood that, at some point, Kelleher will need to move on to be first-choice elsewhere.
