FC Twente sign Liverpool keeper Mikhailov

FC Twente have completed the loan signing of goalkeeper Nikolai Mikhailov from Liverpool.

The Bulgaria youth international only arrived on Merseyside this summer but will spend the 2007/08 season in Holland.

The Reds signed Mikhailov from Levski Sofia on a five-year deal, but the 19-year-old son of goalkeeping legend Borislav Mikhailov does not have a work permit to play in England.

Mikhailov is the third goalkeeper in coach Fred Rutten's squad along with number one Sander Boschker and Cees Paauwe.
