Liverpool sporting director Richard Hughes has some big decisions to make on the futures of several Reds stars from now until the end of the season.
Hughes is locked in negotiations with the representatives of Trent Alexander-Arnold, Virgil van Dijk and Mohamed Salah over potential new deals and is pushing to keep the trio at Anfield.
However, several other players are facing an uncertain future at Anfield despite the team doing well this season and looking like real contenders to win the Premier League.
Wataru Endo is almost certain to leave in January after hardly getting a look-in by Arne Slot in the first half of the season and Tyler Morton is likely to be loaned out with Leeds United interested in snapping him up.
But there are expected to be key departures in the summer and Caoimhin Kelleher is almost certain to move on from Anfield at the end of the season.
The Ireland goalkeeper has been urged to leave Anfield to save his career but he could end up at one of Liverpool’s traditional rivals.
Chelsea plot swoop for Kelleher
According to the Sun, Chelsea are interested in taking the Ireland goalkeeper to Stamford Bridge in the summer transfer window.
Enzo Maresca is not convinced about the goalkeeping options he has in his squad and wants an upgrade at the end of the season.
Kelleher has been identified as a top target and Chelsea are plotting to secure a deal to sign the 26-year-old in the coming months.
He will have a year left on his contract at Liverpool in the summer and the club are open to selling him.
Can you name the team Liverpool sold these players to?
The Reds would prefer to not sell him to a direct Premier League rival but Chelsea are keen to get their hands on Kelleher.
If the Blues decide to match Liverpool’s £35m asking price, the Reds would have very little choice but to let him move to Stamford Bridge.
Kelleher wants to join a top club and is convinced that he has it in him to be a number one for one of the big wigs of the Premier League.
