Liverpool keeper Kelleher encouraged to leave

Liverpool's Carabao Cup penalty shoot-out hero Caoimhin Kelleher should go out on loan.

That is the opinion of former Newcastle United goalkeeper Shay Given.

The Irish ex-shot stopper was speaking about Kelleher's heroics, as he finally got a chance to play instead of first-choice Alisson Becker.

Given told the Irish Times for Boyle Sports: “It's a tricky one for Caoimhin. But whether he should stick or twist, for me I'd have to twist.

“He's not 18 or 19, don't get me wrong he has loads of time ahead of him, but I'm sure he wants to be playing.

“Klopp really likes him, because where are you going to get a number two as good as him? You just aren't.

“But at the same time you just have one life, one career and I'm sure he's itching to be playing."
