The goalkeeper, like any player, can be substituted at any stoppage of play, with the referee's permission. The important difference for goalkeepers is that they also need the referee's permission to switch positions with an outfield player (outfielders can normally interchange amongst themselves, but the 'keeper is a special case).
If you mean substitutions, there are 3 per game. A team must always have a goalkeeper - if he gets red-carded (and can't be substituted) an outfield player must take his gloves. If the manager still has a substitution, he can send in his substitute goalkeeper in exchange for an outfield player. If not, the team is stuck with the outfield player being the goalkeeper for the remainder of the match.If you mean transfers, there are specific transfer windows (two months before the season starts and one month mid-season) when players can move to another team. There are no special rules for goalkeepers for transfers.
