What we did

Caoimhín Kelleher (b. 23 November 1998, Cork) is a 26‑year‑old Irish goalkeeper who recently completed a record-breaking move from Liverpool to Brentford, signing a five‑year contract in June 2025 for a fee reported up to £18 million.

After ten years in Liverpool’s system, Kelleher emerged from the backup role to Alisson, earning 67 senior appearances and securing 24 clean sheets.

His career includes a clutch penalty save against Kylian Mbappé in a Champions League fixture, a two-game streak of penalty saves, a first for a Liverpool keeper in over a century. Kelleher was also a crucial part of the 2024 EFL Cup-winning team, keeping a clean sheet at Wembley.

Internationally, Kelleher has earned 22 caps for the Republic of Ireland, establishing himself as a reliable presence between the posts. He steps into Brentford as their long-term No. 1, replacing Mark Flekken, and is expected to bring top-end Premier League experience and shot-stopping excellence to the side.

In KPI’s view, Kelleher brings elite athleticism, high-pressure composure, and a winning mentality, assets that align with our high-performance standards. His move to Brentford marks the start of an exciting new chapter as he cements himself in England’s top flight.

At KPI, we’re proud to say that Caoimhin was our first EVER KPI athlete upon establishment of the company. Our key highlights include supporting him through several successful spells at Liverpool FC when stepping up in both Premier League and domestic cup matches, and tournament successes!

Really good.

The improvements you get in such a small time as long as you trust and stay consistent is great. I’m now on top of the stat boards which was never really a thing for me so really happy.

I’ve been working with Tom for almost 2 months now

and throughout this time already I am starting to see the rewards not only off the pitch in the gym but on the pitch in my every day training schedule at the club. His attention to detail is spot on and the time and effort he puts in with his clients couldn’t be better. I look forward to continuing this journey and continue progressing whilst working with Tom!

I really enjoyed working with Tom during the off season,

his knowledge is top class and he is always looking to improve which is a big reason why I worked with him. He was very specific with our work and after thorough examination came up with a great training programme on and off the pitch for me to get me in good shape for the new season and to help get rid of some minor injuries I’d been carrying from the last season. Highly recommend to anyone.
