Liverpool have reportedly loaned out young goalkeeper Lawrence Vigouroux to Swindon Town.
The 21-year-old played for the Robins in their friendly with Liverpool on Sunday, and put in an impressive display as they suffered a valiant 2-1 defeat.
Reds prospects Jordan Williams and Kevin Stewart were also in the Swindon lineup, and BBC Sport reports that Vigouroux has followed the pair in joining the League One side on a season-long loan.
Mark Cooper’s side need a new number-one stopper after Wes Foderingham, who has since signed for Rangers, left the club upon the expiration of his contract in June.

Vigoroux, born in London but of Chilean and Jamaican heritage, was snapped up on a free transfer by Brendan Rodgers last summer after his release by Tottenham Hotspur.
He was a regular for the club’s under-21 side last season and had been expected to step up into the first-team picture prior to the signing of Adam Bogdan on a free transfer.
