Liverpool complete next summer signing - but it's not Florian Wirtz or Milos Kerkez! Reds confirm deal for wonderkid goalkeeper Armin Pecsi

Liverpool have confirmed the signature of the 20-year-old keeper from the Hungarian top-flight side, without stating how long the contract is. He is the Reds' second summer signing after recruiting Jeremie Frimpong from Bayer Leverkusen last month.

Liverpool are trying to sign Bayer Leverkusen's Florian Wirtz and Bournemouth's Milos Kerkez, among others, but now they have strengthened in between the sticks. According to Fabrizio Romano, Pecsi is part of a 'long-term' project, and this is a 'record' sale for Akademia.

Pecsi moves to Liverpool after a successful season with Akademia, where he featured 30 times and led them to a second-placed finish in the league. He is also a nominee for the prestigious 2025 Golden Boy award.

Pecsi is unlikely to go straight into Liverpool's first-team but will have long-term desires of getting ahead of fellow stoppers Alisson and Giorgi Mamardashvili in the Reds' goal.
