NewsMarcelo Pitaluga signs new LFC deal and joins St Patrick's Athletic on loan

The Brazilian stopper, 21, has also signed a new contract extension with the club before heading out to gain further senior experience with St Pat’s, for whom fellow Reds ’keeper Vitezslav Jaros enjoyed a productive spell during 2021.

Pitaluga arrived at Liverpool in October 2020 from Fluminense and has been named on the bench seven times under Jürgen Klopp, while also spending time on loan with Macclesfield FC.

St Pat’s begin their 2024 campaign in the Leinster Senior Cup later this month, before the new Irish Premier Division season gets under way in February.
