ONAPPLE&GOOGLE PLAYAnother player to have left Merseyside after the 2024/25 title triumph is Caoimhin Kelleher, whos since established himself as a guaranteed starter at Brentford, a status he never enjoyed for LFC due to the continued brilliance of Alisson Becker.Kelleher return to Liverpool not completely ruled outIn an article forThe Athletic assessing Liverpools goalkeeping situation once the Brazilian departs (his contract expires in 12 months time), Gregg Evans addresses the possibility of the Republic of Ireland international coming back to Anfield at a future stage.The journalist wrote of Kelleher: There was no buyback clause in the deal which took him to west London, but that is not to say he would not appeal in the future especially if he performs well again next season.Finding a full-time replacement for Alisson is going to be tough, but Kelleher is one of the few to have shown he is capable of fitting in.
