Alex McCarthy open to a move to Anfield
Southampton goalkeeper Alex McCarthy has been overtaken in the pecking order at St. Mary’s by Angus Gunn and this has left him considering his future.
Reports on the Evening Standard suggest that McCarthy is finally open to a move to Anfield after falling out of favour at Southampton.
Similarly, reports suggest that Liverpool are interested in signing a back-up goalkeeper as they prepare to let Simon Mignolet leave the club this summer.
Jurgen Klopp’s side have been after McCarthy since he made a move to Crystal Palace in 2016 but McCarthy was never ready for the move to Anfield. Now, however, he is considering a change to one of the top teams in England.
Although it’s not a definite option, McCarthy has expressed his interest and it comes at a perfect time for Klopp following Mignolet’s exit.
There are however other teams believed to be interested in the 30-year-old, according to the report.
