Crewe Alexandra are attempting to sign a 'highly-rated' Premier League goalkeeper with the club keen to let him go - according to a well-known football reporter.

On Sunday 11 June, football writer for The Sun, Alan Nixon, reported Crewe are trying to sign Liverpool goalkeeper, Harvey Davies, on loan.

The 19-year-old keeper has risen up through Liverpool's academy ranks and is yet to experience a move away from Anfield.

Crewe manager, Lee Bell, is on the hunt for a goalkeeper after former loanee, James Beadle, returned to Brighton following an ankle injury in April.

The 18-year-old is not expected to sign for Crewe again this summer - with other options being explored.

Davies been a regular for Liverpool at various youth levels over recent years and is an England Under-20 international.

He was handed his first professional contract in 2021 - which was given an extension in July 2022.

According to Liverpool FC's official club website: "Harvey Davies is a highly-rated stopper who signed his first professional contract with the club in July 2021.

"The Scouser has been at Liverpool since U9 level and made his U18s debut as an U16 player in 2019-20 when he featured in the FA Youth Cup against Tottenham Hotspur.

"He was an integral part of the U18 squad that made it all the way to the final of the FA Youth Cup in 2021, making some vital stops in away ties against Manchester United and Leicester City in particular."

In 2022, Davies was included in Liverpool's pre-season first team training camps and tour of the Far East - playing in a pre-season friendly against Crystal Palace.
