Despite his excellent run as Liverpool No 1 in the absence of Alisson, it is looking increasingly likely that this will be Caoimhín Kelleher's last season as a Red.
The Cork man has been in flying form, despite a major blip against Newcastle on Wednesday.
Highlights have included a penalty save from Kylian Mbappe against Real Madrid and a late one-on-one stop to deny Kevin de Bruyne and Man City, while captain Virgil van Dijk has lauded his performances.
But despite Kelleher's performances, Liverpool boss Arne Slot has made it clear that Alisson will be straight back into the side when he is back to full fitness.
Speaking on Premier Sports, Ireland assistant manager John O'Shea gave his thoughts on the 26-year-old's future.
He said: "He is unflappable. He's a great character, and he is everything you want from your goalkeeper.
"If I was playing in front of Caoimhín - he's just calm and relaxed, he just oozes confidence every time, and it's brilliant that he has just shown that consistency again.
"I think he is going to have lots of teams, all around Europe looking for him, and I'm sure they will be knocking down the doors very soon. "
O'Shea revealed that he has spoken to keeper about his future with his club, and hinted that he will soon be gone from Anfield.
He added: "He is more than capable of taking that decision himself, and I know for a fact there will be lots more teams looking at him because I just think he is a number one top European goalkeeper.
"He needs to be number one now, and he knows that, and I think Liverpool won't be able to stop him.
"It could be London, it could be Newcastle, you never know."
