Brentford has officially signed goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher from Liverpool for an initial fee of £12.5m, potentially rising to £18m, with both clubs linked by recent player transfers. Kelleher, eager for first-team action, faced reduced opportunities at Liverpool due to the arrival of Giorgi Mamardashvili. The move comes after Mark Flekken transferred to Bayer Leverkusen, prompting Brentford to seek Kelleher as a replacement. Brentford’s director of football, Phil Giles, praised Kelleher's talent and positive reputation, expressing confidence in his ability to integrate into the team as a key player.
When Mark Flekken had the opportunity to move to Bayer Leverkusen, we immediately thought about Caoimhin as his replacement, said Brentford's director of football, Phil Giles.
Caoimhin Kelleher...made 20 appearances for Liverpool last season...his opportunities were likely to be restricted further at Anfield next season.
