New Liverpool signing Giorgi Mamardashvili has sent a warning to Alisson Becker ahead of the 2025/26 campaign with the Georgian goalkeeper ready to “fight” for the starting spot at Anfield.
The Reds acquired the 24-year-old during the summer as part of a £25m plus £4m in add-ons deal with Valencia as the Merseyside club saw the opportunity to sign a top talent at a good price without any competition.
With Alisson and Caoimhin Kelleher still at Liverpool, the Reds agreed to send Mamardashvili back on loan to the La Liga team before joining Arne Slot’s squad next summer ahead of the 2025/26 campaign.
Speaking about the move, the Georgia international has sent a warning to Alisson that he is coming for his spot next season, which could cause some friction given the Brazilian’s importance in the Liverpool dressing room.
When asked why he joined the Merseyside club in a recent interview, Mamardashvili said via Fabrizio Romano: “I was attracted by Liverpool’s project when the club’s representatives met me to sign me.”
Before saying: “I will fight for the starting goalkeeper position even if the current goalkeeper does not leave the team.”
