Liverpool sign goalkeeper Mamardashvili from Valencia
Liverpool have agreed a deal to sign Valencia goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili, with the player set to move to Anfield ahead of next season, the Premier League club said on Tuesday.
The 23-year-old, whose transfer is subject to a work permit and international clearance, will spend the remainder of the current campaign with the LaLiga club, where he has made 102 appearances, before moving to Merseyside next summer.
British media reported the deal was worth around 30 million pounds ($39.77 million).

Cancelo joins Al-Hilal from Manchester City
Manchester City's Portugal defender Joao Cancelo has joined Saudi Arabian club Al-Hilal, both sides said on Tuesday.
Cancelo joined City in 2019 from Juventus, winning three consecutive Premier League titles from 2021 to 2023 after securing the Serie A crown with Juve in 2018-19.
He spent last season on loan at LaLiga side Barcelona after a half-year loan spell in the Bundesliga with Bayern Munich in the previous campaign.
Brighton sign Kadioglu from Fenerbahce for 30 million euros
Brighton & Hove Albion have signed left back Ferdi Kadioglu from Turkish side Fenerbahce, the two clubs said on Tuesday.
The Premier League club will pay 30 million euros ($33.56 million) in guaranteed payments with an additional 5 million euros in performance-related add-ons, Fenerbahce said on Public Disclosure Platform (KAP), while Brighton also confirmed the deal on social media platform X.
The 24-year-old defender, who joined Fenerbahce in 2018, has a Turkish father and a Dutch-Canadian mother and played up to under-21 level for the Netherlands before switching his allegiance to Turkey in 2022.
He was a stand-out player for Turkey in their 2-1 win over Austria in the last 16 of this year's European Championship.
Jose Mourinho-coached Fenerbahce, who were runners-up in last season's Turkish Super Lig, added that they would receive 10% of any future transfer fee that Brighton received for the player.
Chilwell and Sancho linked in potential swap deal between Chelsea and Manchester United
In a surprising twist, Chelsea's Ben Chilwell might be on the move to Manchester United, with the possibility of a swap deal involving Manchester United's Jadon Sancho.
According to The Independent, both players could be exchanged on loan this season, a scenario also highlighted by Goal.com. This potential swap would be separate from any deals involving Chelsea's Raheem Sterling, who has also been linked with a move to Old Trafford.
Ben Chilwell, who joined Chelsea from Leicester City in 2020 for around £45 million ($59.4m), has made 106 appearances and scored nine goals for the Blues.
Despite his contributions, it appears new Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca does not see Chilwell as part of his plans. Manchester United, on the other hand, is in desperate need of a reliable left-back due to injuries to Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia. Chilwell's arrival could provide much-needed cover in that position.
