Caoimhin Kelleher leaving Liverpool for Manchester City might suit both parties its only 45 minutes down the road, he wouldnt even need to relocate Former goalkeeping ace explains why a rare move between rivals makes sense this summer

Both Manchester City and their regular goalkeeper Ederson have endured a tough season, and David James believes that, should Pep Guardiola decide to replace the Brazilian, Kelleher would be a good option.

If you go back to last season, maybe the season before even, Alisson and Ederson for me were the top two goalkeepers around, without question, the former Liverpool and Manchester City shot-stopper said, speaking in association with Prime Casino.

I think Ederson has had a difficult season, I think thats fair to say. If he were to move, I think Stefan Ortega has proven to be a reliable number two.

Then theres the likes of Diogo Costa (of Porto), who I really do like, I think he's a fantastic goalkeeper.

He does everything that you would expect Peps goalkeepers to do. He's got that dynamism about him, agility about him. He seems calm.

But even the likes of Caoimhin Kelleher could be a suitable replacement if Pep Guardiola was looking to replace Ederson because Caoimhin, in his role for Liverpool, is essentially doing everything that Ederson does for Manchester City.

Caoimhons got that calmness about him. He's unflappable. He's won trophies, which is a major thing. He knows how to get into those positions to win trophies. He's been involved in penalty shootouts, all the stuff that you want from a top goalkeeper.

If Liverpool needed to move one goalkeeper on, and Man City might need one, you know, you probably wouldn't even have to relocate because it's only 45 minutes down the road.

You dont often see moves like that between two title rivals, but I think this one could benefit all parties.
