Liverpool reportedly have significant interest in one Premier League star. They could soon move.
Liverpool will need to sort their goalkeepers out this summer. There is increased speculation that Alisson Becker will depart the club a year before his contract is due to expire, with Juventus heavily interested in the Brazilian.
But that would naturally leave Liverpool light. Giorgi Mamardashvili is still at the club and would likely be first-choice but the Reds would require a new senior-level option to compete with him.
And they may have found one. Teamtalk reports that there's 'significant' interest form Liverpool in Bart Verbruggen of Brighton.
The Seagulls are alert to the interest in their goalkeeper and are seeking a replacement. It seems the chances of Verbruggen moving on are legitimate - though, it's unclear just how realistic it is.
As we say, Liverpool would need a new goalkeeper if Alisson were to leave. Exactly who that would be isn't entirely known but Verbruggen appears to be on the shortlist.
It'll be one of the stories of the transfer window, certainly. All change at Liverpool, once again.
Brighton Performance and Stats
As of 15 May 2026, Bart Verbruggen is enjoying a standout season as Brighton’s primary goalkeeper. The 23-year-old has made 36 Premier League appearances, recording 10 clean sheets and maintaining an average FotMob rating of 6.98. His recent form includes a clean sheet in a 3–0 win over Wolves on 9 May and a high-rated 7.3 performance against Chelsea in April. Verbruggen’s market value has recently peaked at €50.9 million, reflecting his status as one of the league's top young keepers.
Verbruggen has emerged as a major target for Liverpool. Reports from 15 May indicate the Reds are weighing up a move for the Dutchman as a potential replacement for Alisson Becker, who is linked with Juventus.
International Standing
Verbruggen is the confirmed first-choice goalkeeper for the Netherlands ahead of the 2026 World Cup this June.
