Liverpool’s goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher received the green light to continue a summer move to Leeds United, with its international director, Heimir Hallgrimsson, publicly supporting the decision.
Hallgrimsson stressed the importance of regular football from the first team to stop it 26 years old, suggesting that a passage to Leeds could provide the perfect platform for its development.
Leeds closely has been monitoring Kelleher’s situation in Anfield for several months.
In March, it was reported that any potential decision for the Republic of Ireland was subject to that Leeds was promoting the Premier League.
Leeds United is ready for transfer cases
The whites obtained an promotion to the elite and now they moved their concentration on strengthening their team before the new season.
The club’s return to the elite now opens the door to serious negotiations with Liverpool on the promising goalkeeper.
Illan Meslier fought with form and consistency throughout the championship campaign, which led to his replacement by Karl Darlow during the decisive running.
Meslier’s large -scale errors have raised concerns about its ability to perform at the Premier League.
“I just want it to go to a club where he will play. He played at the highest level “,” The boss of the Republic of Ireland told Irish Echo.
“The Champions League, Premier League, has succeeded very well. I just want it to be happy and play regularly. I don’t mind where it goes as long as it plays regularly, it is too good not to play. ”
Kelleher deserves to play more
In Liverpool, Kelleher was an assistant capable of Alisson Becker, but found limited opportunities.
His performances for Liverpool in cutting competitions have demonstrated his down pressure and pressure composure capacities, but the regular minutes of the Premier League were difficult to find.
A transfer to Leeds would not only provide Kelleher with a platform to present his talent week after week, but would also solidify his position as a goalkeeper for the first choice of Ireland.
With Liverpool who would have been opened to negotiations and Kelleher wishing a starting role, the path seems clear for discussions to progress.
With Meslier, Junior Firpo could also get out of Elland Road this summer.
