BRENTFORD have agreed a £12.5million deal to sign Liverpool goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher.
After several successful seasons backing up Alisson, the Irishman is set for a crack as a Premier League No1.
Kelleher, 26, has made 67 senior appearances for the Reds.
Under Jurgen Klopp and then Arne Slot, the Cork-born ace has helped Liverpool to a Premier League title, an FA Cup, two League Cups and the Uefa Super Cup.
According to Sky Sports, Brentford have had a £12.5m bid accepted for Kelleher.
Thomas Frank‘s side are seeking a replacement for outgoing stopper Mark Flekken.
The Dutchman, 31, is on the verge of becoming Erik ten Hag‘s first signing as Bayer Leverkusen boss.
Flekken has agreed to join Leverkusen in an £11m deal, although the transfer has not yet been finalised with Brentford wanting to find a replacement first.
With Kelleher on the brink of signing, the Bees will likely complete their Flekken sale in the coming days.
Several fans have been left stunned by the bargain fee for Kelleher.
