There's only 2 years difference in the age gap between Kelleher and Allison and Kelleher and Bazunu. Allison is still a young goalkeeper so unless Liverpool are going to cash in on him any time soon Kelleher is gonna have to move on.
I know he hasn't been the official number 2 for all the years he's been there but he has been training the the top coaches and great goalkeeper for years now. This is the excuse many are making for why he should stay, but again I ask the question, stay until when?
At 26 is it still good enough for him to be number 2 to 32 year old Allison? Who knows, by then Liverpool might have churned out 3 more brilliant young keepers.
My opinion is that at the end of this season if he's not looking to move on to play at least on loan he is just comfortable with a paycheck and doesn't have the drive to be a top class keeper anyway
