The Reds were runners-up in last year's Carabao Cup and are hoping to go all the way again this season with Woodman and fellow summer signing Giorgi Mamardashvili on board.

However, Woodman had considered not joining Liverpool, as he revealed in a recent interview with the club's website. He had other options available to him, but his father advised him not to pass up the opportunity to play for the club.

Woodman expressed his excitement about playing for Liverpool, citing the club's rich history and his desire to contribute to its success. He mentioned that he had other options, but his father's words of wisdom swayed him to join the team.

Woodman also spoke about the influence of former goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher, who won the Carabao Cup with Liverpool in 2022 and 2024. He said that he regularly sees pictures of Kelleher's successes in the club's goalkeeping area and is motivated to replicate that success for himself.

Woodman believes that Liverpool takes the Carabao Cup seriously and that winning the competition is a significant achievement for the fans. He sees the photos of Kelleher's victories as a reminder of the importance of the competition and is eager to write his own name into the club's history books.
