Journalist Fabrizio Romano stated that Liverpool has officially signed custodian Giorgi Mamardashvili after successfully recruiting him from Valencia.
According to journalist Fabrizio Romano, Liverpool has officially signed its first new player in the summer transfer season, keeper Giorgi Mamardashvili.
As a result, the Kops have agreed to pay a cost of 35 million Euros, which includes a profit-sharing option if the 23-year-old custodian is sold later. Mamardashvili will undergo a medical assessment before formally joining the Anfield team.
Mamardashvili will continue to play for Valencia until the end of the season before moving to England in July 2025.
Mamardashvili rose to attention following his stunning performance for Georgia in Euro 2024. Despite being regarded as an underdog at the tournament, Mamardashvili delivered an outstanding performance in goal, setting the stage for his forward players to shine and assisting the Eastern European team in reaching the knockout stages of a major tournament for the first time in their debut.
Allison Becker, Liverpool’s number one custodian for the previous six years, could be on his way out as the Georgian custodian remains on loan at Valencia until next summer, despite his contract running until 2027.
However, in a recent interview with the Times, Alisson stated that he has no plans to leave Anfield, despite Mamardashvili’s approaching arrival.
The Brazilian custodian stated: “The club must plan for the future. We will not be here forever, and I am also getting older! No, as a custodian, I am still young, full of enthusiasm, and eager to give back to this club.
The club will replicate it for other positions as well. We have a number of significant players whose contracts are coming to an end, and the club needs to plan and prepare for the future. I think it is an excellent concept. I was aware of it before it surfaced on social media, and it sends a positive message to me since the club values my feedback.”
