Caoimhin Kelleher
26-Year-Old
Brentford
Premier
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Kelleher had been the long-term backup for Liverpool, starting 10 games each of the last two seasons. He now gets the chance to be an unquestioned starter after making the switch to Brentford to replace Mark Flekken. Kelleher has shown plenty of potential as a backup, keeping four clean sheets and only conceding 12 goals in 10 matches last season. Brentford don't have the most rigid defense, conceding 57 goals last season, which means Kelleher could be busy for the Bees. Last season, Flekken made a ridiculous 153 saves to go with seven clean sheets. It's unclear how he will handle the heavy shot volume, but Kelleher has been one of the better backups in the Premier League and is at the very least an intriguing option as a starter.

Concedes three on Brentford debut
Kelleher had two saves and allowed three goals in Sunday's 3-1 loss versus Nottingham Forest.
ANALYSIS
Kelleher conceded three in his first start in the Premier League for Brentford. He made two saves in the game. Last season, when at Liverpool, he played 10 matches, keeping four clean sheets. Across these games, he conceded 12 goals and made 27 saves.
