"Liverpool forked out close to half a billion pounds on new recruits last summer, and it's fair to say the early results are mixed. All bar one of the new names have got their fair share of playing time unless injured, with £29.9m (€35m) goalkeeper, Giorgi Mamardashvili, the exception."
"Despite his reputation as one of Europe's most promising young goalkeepers, Mamardashvili has found opportunities limited at Anfield, with Alisson once again proving himself as one of the world's best this season and playing a crucial role in getting Liverpool's campaign back on track."
"Now 33, Alisson has already been assured by the club that they will take up the option to extend his contract through to 2027, further cementing his status as Liverpool's number one for the foreseeable future."
"The Georgian international did see some action earlier in the season when Alisson was ruled out with a hamstring issue, but struggled to convince, managing just two clean sheets in 11 appearances."
Liverpool invested heavily in summer signings, with most receiving regular playing time except goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili. The Georgian international has grown frustrated as understudy to Alisson Becker, who continues performing at elite level. Cup competitions have not provided alternative opportunities, as Liverpool exited early and manager Slot selected Alisson over Mamardashvili in FA Cup action. Alisson's contract will be extended through 2027, securing his position as Liverpool's primary goalkeeper. Mamardashvili's previous appearances resulted in only two clean sheets across 11 matches during Alisson's injury absence, failing to make a compelling case for increased minutes.
