Liverpool have reportedly shown interest in signing Southampton’s Alex McCarthy this summer, according to the Daily Mail. The Reds, who aimed for the Premier League title this season but ultimately secured a third-place finish, are already planning for the next campaign. With Jurgen Klopp set to leave, likely to be replaced by Arne Slot, Liverpool are looking to bolster their squad, including a backup goalkeeper for Alisson, as Caoimhin Kelleher seeks regular playing time elsewhere.
The Daily Mail reports that Liverpool see McCarthy as a serious target and might make a formal approach after the season ends. McCarthy, who will be a free agent this summer, is also attracting interest from Newcastle United and Celtic, making the competition for his signature fierce. The 34-year-old, known for his Premier League experience and ball-handling skills, could be a valuable addition for Liverpool.
As Klopp prepares for his final match with Liverpool against Wolverhampton Wanderers at Anfield, he hopes to conclude his tenure with a win.
