Caoimhin Kelleher Next Club Odds: Brentford Favourites To Sign Irish Goalkeeper

After a decade at Liverpool, could the time be right for Caoimhin Kelleher to leave Liverpool?

The best betting sites certainly think so, as the Irishman looks to be a first-choice goalkeeper. 

Kelleher has played understudy to Alisson Becker for a number of seasons, during which time he has shown he is good enough to be a regular starter elsewhere.

Giorgi Mamardashvili is due to join Liverpool in the summer, and it looks like the Georgia international will be Alisson's long-term successor.

Kelleher is likely to have a choice of clubs to choose from, but who are favourites to sign him?

Kelleher Fits Bees Needs 

Brentford are the current favourites to sign the Republic of Ireland international.

Mark Flekken was first choice for Thomas Frank last season, starting all but one of the 38 Premier League games. 

Flekken is attracting interest from Bayer Leverkusen, who have appointed Erik ten Hag as their new manager.

Kelleher would be an ideal replacement for Brentford if Flekken was to move to the Bundesliga club.

The Bees are the 4/7 favourites on football betting sites.

Caoimhin Kelleher Next Club Odds

(Odds correct at time of publish - 11.45am 29/5/2025)

Villa May Need Martinez Replacement

It's believed, although not reported that Emi Martinez's red card in Aston Villa's final-day defeat at Manchester United will be the keeper's last action for the club.

Villa manager Unai Emery insisted after the 2-0 loss that the World Cup winner would not be leaving the club, but we shall see.

If Martinez is to leave Villa Park, Kelleher would be a worthy replacement, and the Midlands club are 8/1 on betting apps to sign the talented keeper.

Hammers Could Make A Move

Graham Potter has a big summer ahead of him to improve the West Ham squad and make them more of a threat next season. 

The Hammers finished 14th last season, which began with Julen Lopetegui in charge of the team, only for Potter to replace him in January.

Potter opted to start with Alphonse Areola ahead of Lukasz Fabianski, who was Lopetegui's first choice keeper. 

If Potter believes Kelleher is better than both, then West Ham could make a bid and they are 8/1 to land the shot-stopper.

Leeds Desperately Need A Keeper

Leeds United are back in the Premier League after finishing the season top of the Championship.

However, the performances of their goalkeeper Illan Meslier, threatened to derail their quest to get back to the top flight. 

After a couple of errors in a 2-2 draw at Swansea, manager Daniel Farke dropped Meslier for the final seven games, which saw Karl Darlow selected instead. 

If Leeds (9/1) are to stay up next season, they will need a quality keeper, and Kelleher fits the bill.

Kelleher Could Join Ten Hag At Leverkusen

Ten Hag will be keen to strengthen his squad, now that he has been named as Xabi Alonso's replacement as Bayer Leverkusen's manager.

Lukas Hradecky was first choice last season for Alonso's side, who finished second, 13 points behind champions Bayern Munich.

The Finland international kept just seven clean sheets in 42 games for club and country last season, so Ten Hag might be lining up a replacement. 

The German side, who won the Bundesliga title in 2023, are 12/1 to sign the Liverpool man.

Newcastle Also In The Mix

Newcastle are back in the Champions League after finishing fifth, despite losing their final game of the season.

Eddie Howe, who guided the Magpies to Europe's elite club competition a couple of seasons ago, knows he will have to build a squad strong enough to compete domestically and in Europe. 

Nick Pope is United's first choice, but at 33, Howe might want a younger goalkeeper to call on. Newcastle are 12/1 to sign Kelleher.

Other clubs in the mix include Bournemouth (12/1) as well as Chelsea (12/1) and Celtic (16/1), who can both offer Champions League football next season.
