# Trabzonspor reject €24m bid from Liverpool for Cakir

Trabzonspor have rejected a €24 million deadline day bid from Liverpool for goalkeeper Ugurcan Cakir, according to *Sabah*, via *[Sport Witness](https://sportwitness.co.uk/claim-liverpool-table-e24m-target-may-patient/)*.

The 23-year-old has been [linked](https://readliverpoolfc.com/2019/11/08/liverpools-interest-in-goalkeeper-cakir-confirmed/) with the Reds in the past, but nothing has come to fruition.

It is now [claimed](https://sportwitness.co.uk/claim-liverpool-table-e24m-target-may-patient/) that Trabzonspor have rejected a fresh bid, such is their desire to keep him until the end of the season.

### Read Liverpool Verdict

I am losing count of the number of times Liverpool have apparently been interested in Cakir, but there is simply no need to sign him.

That’s not downplaying his quality as a ‘keeper, but the Reds are well-stocked in that area.

In Alisson, I think Liverpool they have the best ‘keeper in the world, with another [superb performance at West Ham](https://www.empireofthekop.com/2020/01/30/video-alissons-world-class-one-handed-save-v-west-ham/) highlighting his brilliance.

Adrian has proven to be an able deputy, too, coming in for the Brazilian for two months earlier in the season, helping the Reds clinch[Super Cup glory](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/49332825).

On top of that, there are emerging young ‘keepers such as Kamil Grabara and Caoimhin Kelleher hoping to make the grade long-term at Anfield.
