A little bit of unwanted history likely to be put to bed today with Kelleher becoming our first player for 14 years to win a Premier League title (he might have a medal from their last win but he didn't play a minute in the League that season).
Having played 900 minutes in the league it's fair to say this is more than just a squad goalkeeper picking up a winners medal based on the performances of others, with Allison's issues throughout the season he has earned this on merit with his performances.
Played an important role for Liverpool this season and deservedly part of celebrations today picking up Premier League medal. Bet he wishes he was playing in the Championship or the Belgian League. Will get his move and no doubt will have a great career somewhere, but I doubt it will be as memorable as winning the PL with Liverpool.
Linked with Aston villa, to replace Martinez, and Leverkusen, as part of a transfer deal for Wirtz, in the last few days
Leverkusen would be a great move for him.
To be very fair to Kelleher and how much he played, didn't play, should've played etc... given how pivotal Allison has been, given how everyone else was crumbling when he got injured, Kelleher's relative stablility in that time was absolutely crucial to Liverpool grabbing the race by the scruff of the neck.
For that the lad deserves all the plaudits.
He can take whatever next step he likes with confidence that he's earned it.
Here they come! It’s the charge of the “Thanks” Brigade!
Lots of talk about Brentford being interested in CK to replace Flekken, who's going back to Germany (Leverkusen) Dunno how much weight to give this Kelleher talk, but he certainly fits the profile Brentford look for, while the club has built an excellent relationship with Liverpool in recent years. Would be a very good move for the player himself, too.
Looks like he's agreed a move to Brentford

Decent start to the summer transfer window
I hope it all works out for the young man. Seems like a good move.
Great move for him, looking forward to seeing him playing every week now. Hes 27 in November so he was definitely creeping into that Jesse Lingard "young player" type territory. Its well past time he was 1st choice somewhere
Its really not that complicated!!!
Ringmahon Rangers scooping 3 million euro from the deal aswell which is brilliant.....

To be fair, they are producing some decent players for us, Kelleher, Alan Browne, the Umeh brothers and Otegbayo at Sheffield Wednesday all started there. Strange that absolute no players are coming through at northside clubs in cork, can't think of any player capped since Roy Keane.
6 year contract for him at Brentford, hopefully a successful period for him…

no idea how true it is, but heard liverpool have a buy-back clause kicking in after 2 years (when Alisson's contract expires) and again a year later.
