Liverpool look set to keep Mignolet this summer despite speculation

Despite speculation linking Liverpool’s back-up keeper Simon Mignolet with a move away from the club, it now looks as though his fortunes have changed and he may stay with the Reds after all.

According to The Times, manager Jurgen Klopp has spoken highly of his goalkeepers and praised both Alisson and Mignolet’s attitude.

The keeper was signed back in 2013 from Sunderland and has made over 200 appearances in all competitions for the Champions League winners.

However, since the arrival of Brazilian shot-stopper Alisson, Mignolet has found chances hard to come by and has settled mainly for a spot on the bench.

It had been suggested he would be allowed to leave the club to pursue first-team opportunities, but Klopp has since spoken highly of him, stating that the player’s attitude since not making the starting 11 has been admirable.

Mignolet remains a reliable option to provide competition for Alisson, despite the fact that game time looks unlikely next season.
