Andoni Iraola gives 25-year-old Liverpool star one season to save his career

Liverpool's new signing period has been relatively low-key this summer, with only four new players joining the squad. However, the team's goalkeeper situation has been a point of concern. Giorgi Mamardashvili, at 25 years old, is set to become Liverpool's second-choice goalkeeper for the 2026-27 season, despite struggling during the previous campaign.

Mamardashvili failed to make an impact last term, and since Caoimhin Kelleher has moved to Brentford, Mamardashvili's future at Anfield is uncertain. This summer, Liverpool will have to make a crucial decision about Mamardashvili's role. If he doesn't significantly improve his game, he may struggle to retain his starting position.

The club's financial situation is tight after spending £30 million on Bradley Barcola, so the decision to retain Mamardashvili as first-choice could prove to be a costly one.
