[I couldn’t see a recent thread covering this subject].

Kelleher is reportedly moving to Brentford for £18m. An outstanding goalie imho. Flekken on his way to Bayer Levenkusen.
I've never got the fuss.

Seems to be mostly Liverpool fans insisting that their backup keeper is as good as every other team's first choice, but the few times I've actually watched him play a match he's been mediocre (albeit small sample size).

Also, Cunha to United now completed.

I’ve seen Kelleher (on tv) a lot. Has it all, just one notable misjudgment, brilliant at pen & pen shootout saves, incredibly calm.

I'll probably eat my words, but this is SUCH a Manchester United signing. Paying over £60m for a big fish in a small pond, who is a great footballer but wildly inconsistent as a well as a tactical and disciplinary liability.

I spoke with a chap at work who is a Wolves fan and he said that although they love him, he clearly has no interest in systems or tactics. He's great if you let him just do what he wants.

Agree. Him and Bruno in the same team. Midfield will be more open than Katie Price legs

Indeed, not exactly going to help remedy their “playing like a bunch of individuals” style they seem to have had for god knows how long.

Got schooled by Wieffer when we played Wolves.

I think that's a bargain
He’s an interesting one for me. Has had some decent games in the absence of Alisson but has been poor for Ireland lately and I can’t help but wonder if he’s one of those who fans rate much higher than is realistic simply because he’s at a big club. Arsenal fans do that a lot: insist their fringe players (like Nketiah and Reiss Nelson for example) must be top class when really they weren’t.

City are supposedly after Ait Nouri from Wolves as well.

Could Wolves be at risk? Their recruitment in recent years has been lacking and the loss of Cunha and Ait Nouri could spell trouble.

Kelleher is reportedly moving to Brentford for £12.5m (rising to £18m). An outstanding goalie imho. Flekken on his way to Bayer Levenkusen.
Looks like there could be quite a lot of goalkeeping musical chairs this summer.

Onana looks set to leave United, very possibly for Saudi and Emi Martinez is likely to leave Villa too.

I wonder if Ramsdale will leave Stains, he prevented some far greater losses.
