Premier League giants will let star join Chelsea for £35 million – Blues ready to get deal done
Reporter Iomie Stanley has come out and encouraged CHELSEA to make a move for Liverpool goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher at the end of the season, amid reports that the Blues can sign the stopper for £35 million.
LIVERPOOL made the big decision in the summer to wrap up the signing of Mamardashvili amid all the speculation over the long-term future of Alisson, who has been linked with a move to Saudi Arabia for months.
According to The Sun, Liverpool are reluctant to sell Kelleher to a direct rival but would still likely accept an offer in the region of £35million.
Kelleher has made no secret of his desire to be the first-choice goalkeeper somewhere after spending the past five and a half seasons as a back-up option behind Alisson Becker.
It is no secret that CHELSEA are looking at adding a new stopper to the side in the upcoming transfer window, and now Stanley has opened up and shockingly claimed that the board should raid Liverpool for the 25-year old.
He was quoted: “What was really evident to me so far this season was that Chelsea’s No. 1 isn’t as good as Liverpool’s No. 2. Whenever I see Kelleher play, he looks top drawer.
‘Whenever Kelleher’s in goal and he’s played a lot in the last few months, he never looks out of place when he has to come in for Alisson and do a job.
‘Liverpool don’t look any weaker with him in goal and that is a massive compliment by the way. If you’re a Liverpool fan, I know you’ve got [Giorgi] Mamardashvili coming in, but you don’t want Kelleher to go either. He’s too good to be a No. 2.
‘Chelsea want a proven stopper that will increase in value in the coming seasons, Kelleher could be that man.’

Kelleher is a very decent stopper that wants to play and it is a shame that he does want to leave the club as he has been a decent servant for Liverpool – but now is the right time to depart.
But despite being urged by Cundy to make a move – we simply cannot see the stopper moving to CHELSEA .
