#2 Oliver Baumann
The 27-year-old German international had a stellar season with Hoffenheim last year. His club even qualified for the Champions League for the first time in their history, before going out to Liverpool in the Playoff-round.

Hoffenheim conceded just 37 goals in 34 matches, finishing with the second best defensive record in the league, bettered only by champions Bayern Munich. The 187cm tall Baumann's performances during last season were a key factor in this achievement.
The German has very good reflexes and is very impressive in saving short-range shots. According to Squawka, Baumann has made 33 saves in the Bundesliga this season, keeping six clean sheets in the process.
Baumann is now ready to represent big clubs in big tournaments and Liverpool should take advantage of being able to get a fine goalkeeper at a reasonable price. Baumann's current market value is estimated to be around €15 million.
