Brentford appear to have resolved their goalkeeping dilemma for next season. According to renowned insider Fabrizio Romano, the Bees have reached an agreement to sign Liverpool shot-stopper Caoimhín Kelleher.

Sources report the total deal is worth £18 million, including all bonuses. At the same time, first-choice goalkeeper Mark Flekken is departing the club. The Dutch keeper is heading back to the Bundesliga to continue his career with German side Bayer Leverkusen, who will pay €10 million for his services.

For the record, 26-year-old Kelleher featured in 20 matches for Liverpool in the 2024/25 campaign, conceding 20 goals and keeping nine clean sheets. This transfer could mark the beginning of significant changes in Brentford’s backline as the club continues its active squad overhaul.
