Liverpool ‘Very Close’ to Deal for ‘Sensational’ Star

Liverpool are “very close” to agreeing a deal to sign Valencia goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili for the summer of 2025, Ben Jacobs has exclusively told GIVEMESPORT.

The Reds have been linked with the Georgia international for several weeks as

they plan for the eventual departure of Brazilian number one Alisson Becker,

and that has led them towards a deal for Mamardashvili.

The 23-year-old was expected to join Bournemouth on loan for a season as

part of the deal to take him to Anfield next summer,

but while the terms of the deal have changed slightly the Valencia star is still set to make the move.

Liverpool Close to Mamardashvili Deal

Player will stay at Valencia on loan for 2024/25

According to Fabrizio Romano, personal terms have already been agreed between the two parties for a deal but there is no final agreement between Valencia and Liverpool.

However speaking exclusively to GIVEMESPORT on Thursday,

journalist Jacobs revealed that a deal is now “very close” to being agreed upon

with Mamardashvili set to stay at Valencia on loan for the 2024/25 season before moving to Anfield in 2025.

“Yeah, Liverpool are very close to Georgi Mamardashvili from Valencia. It’s a deal framed around 2025.

“He won’t play for Liverpool this season, but it’s about jumping ahead of the market,

and then structurally speaking, it’s likely that he’ll stay at Valencia for this season.

“There was some talk that to get around the fact Liverpool can’t buy

and then loan to a Premier League club in the same window,

he might go to Bournemouth via Valencia and then go to Liverpool afterward.

“But my understanding is that talks are framed around him staying at Valencia this season and then going to Liverpool in 2025.”

Mamardashvili has also had interest from clubs in Saudi Arabia but has rejected offers from the Middle East as he wants to work under Arne Slot to replace Alisson eventually.

Alisson has still got three years remaining on his contract on Merseyside, but has attracted interest from Saudi clubs too and could be tempted to make the move as he turns 32 during the season.
