Liverpool eye move for Reina as next season’s no.2

Liverpool are considering a summer swoop for their former goalkeeper Pepe Reina, according to the Mirror.

The Spaniard is wanted back at Anfield to provide back-up to German shot-stopper Loris Karius.

It would appear that Jurgen Klopp is happy to use Karius as his number one at Anfield but would like an experienced number two, to help the young goalkeeper along the way.

Karius has been Liverpool’s number one during the second-half of the season and has impressed when given the chance.

Reina is out of contract in Naples this summer and has attracted interest from AC Milan and Newcastle in the past.

Liverpool have been linked with a host of goalkeepers, including Roma’s Alisson and Stoke’s Jack Butland.

Roma are desperate not to lose Alisson on the cheap, denting a blow to Liverpool’s hopes of completing a deal for the Brazilian.

Reina has been a regular for Napoli since making a permanent move to the Italian side.
