Nathan Collins

Leixlip 21-year-old set to break Robbie Keane record in move away from Burnley to stay in the Premier League.

In 2000, Inter Milan shelled out £13 million for Robbie Keane while Alex Ferguson broke the British transfer record in 1993, paying Nottingham Forest £3.75 million to bring a 21-year-old Roy Keane to Old Trafford. At least Collins is about to join a select club. The 21-year old’s rapid ascent means he should join Séamus Coleman and Matt Doherty in England’s top flight next season, but that could be it. Collins only joined Burnley last year from Stoke City for £12.5 million. “His decision-making is remarkable for someone so young and it’s a special goal and he deserves special credit for it. “Nathan has established himself in the team and has been really exceptional over the four matches,” said Kenny following the Nations League window.

Ireland defender Nathan Collins is set for a move to Premier League side Wolves, according to reports form The Telegraph.

Collins started all four of Ireland’s Uefa Nations League fixtures in June, particularly impressing in the 3-0 win over Scotland and the 1-1 away draw with Ukraine, and now looks set for a big future in the green jersey. Although the Clarets failed to avoid relegation, his performance levels merited a nomination for the Premier League Player of the Month award for April and his international form carried on from there. Negotiations are said to be ‘progressing well’ between Wolves and Burnley ahead of a £20.5 million move which would spell a Premier League return for the Kildare man.

Bruno Lage's side frequently play with three central defenders in a system that is very similar to the one Stephen Kenny's Irish side deploys at international level.

Clubs don't tend to break the bank on Irish players. For whatever reason, the transfer value of Irish players seems to always be quite low.

Duff became one of Roman Abramovich's first signings and when José Mourinho arrived a year later, he fell instantly in love with the Irish winger. When Antonio Conte replaced Nuno, Doherty wasn't seen in the team for a while. And with Wolves playing a similar system to Ireland, Irish fans should be optimistic about the impact that Collins will have at his new club. Mourinho bought him and then didn't seem to fancy him. With this transfer, Collins is now the most expensive Irish player ever over a single move. And this may be a biased opinion, but he's worth every penny.
