Simon Mignolet‘s poor form cost him a place between the posts in a match against Manchester United. The Swiss was dropped, but his alternative, Brad Jones, didn’t have a nice afternoon since he was beaten three times.

So, Brendan Rodgers is looking for a new goalkeeper and the first choice, as it could be heard, is promising Genoa’s keeper Mattia Perin. After a great start of the season, young Italian made his debut for Italian national team last month, in a minimal victory over Albania in a friendly match and confirmed that he may be a true successor of Gianluigi Buffon.

His agent, Moreno Roggi, said that there were talks with Liverpool and that England is almost an only option, since Genoa is not interested in selling him to another Italian club. If the deal comes through, Liverpool should pay at least 12 million pounds for Perin.
