Alisson and Giorgi Mamardashvili are currently splitting time as Liverpool’s main goalkeeper, but that situation could change after this season.
Mamardashvili arrived at Anfield ahead of the 2025/26 season, following an agreement that had been in place since the summer of 2024.
Mamardashvili has still found playing time hard to come by this term, with Alisson holding onto his starting spot more often than not.
Mamardashvili considering loan move, Alisson’s contract details emerge
That could mean changes to the pecking order between the sticks by next season. This week, Graeme Bailey of TeamTalk provided an update on the situation surrounding the two goalkeepers.
He also cleared up a detail about Alisson’s contract. Despite some reports suggesting he is tied down until 2027, Bailey said his deal actually ends in 2026. However, Liverpool do have an option to extend it for another year and are expected to do so.
If that happens, it could impact Mamardashvili’s future at the club even further. Already frustrated with his limited playing time, he is now considering a loan move in 2026/27 to get more regular action.
Liverpool are aware of his concerns but haven’t made any decisions yet. If he does leave on loan, they’ll likely need to bring in another goalkeeper to fill the gap.
While Mamardashvili hasn’t played often this season, he did step in for five Premier League matches earlier when Alisson was out injured. Unfortunately for him and Liverpool, they lost four of those games and managed only one clean sheet in a 2-0 win over Aston Villa.
