Report: Liverpool competing with Real Madrid and Chelsea for Bart Verbruggen
A Spanish report says Liverpool, Real Madrid and Chelsea are interested in signing Brighton goalkeeper Bart Verbruggen, with all three clubs looking for a goalkeeper ahead of a possible move next year.
According to the report, Real Madrid have been monitoring the Dutch goalkeeper for some time as they look for a long-term solution in goal. Liverpool's interest is linked to planning for the period after Alisson Becker, while they already have Giorgi Mamardashvili, who is expected to join Luka Brugman next summer. Any potential transfer remains dependent on Brighton's willingness to negotiate.
The report also said Chelsea have been monitoring Verbruggen for some time, although Mike Penders has emerged as a long-term option for the club in goal.
