Caoimhin Kelleher

Like Kelleher, when Keane played for Liverpool, he wasn't a first choice in the team, but continued to perform for Ireland on the international stage.

[It's] just the way he plays – how comfortable, how calm he is in possession of the ball, he has a real presence about him. "Definitely very impressed with him. "We've been very lucky in the Irish team that we have really good goalkeepers."

Republic of Ireland boss Stephen Kenny has reiterated that Liverpool goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher did not suffer injury while on international duty.

Liverpool tied him to a new contract last summer and those terms run out in 2026. And Kenny has again insisted that he has no recollection of Kelleher’s injury happening on his watch. Kelleher’s absence has proved a mysterious topic, with differing views on the exact point he suffered his problem.

Kelleher could continue to make the most of opportunities that come his way in cup competitions, for example. Last season, he started the EFL Cup final and ended up scoring the winning penalty in a shootout against Chelsea. [Keane told Liverpool’s official website](https://www.liverpoolfc.com/news/robbie-keane-reflects-his-lfc-career-ahead-anfield-return): “He’s certainly a goalkeeper that should be a No.1 but when you’ve got a world-class keeper in front of you like Alisson, he’ll just have to bide his time. In contrast, he already has eight caps for his national team, the Republic of Ireland. His senior debut came in September 2019 and to date he has made a total of 17 appearances for the club.

The striker signed for Liverpool under Rafael Benitez in the summer of 2008, although his new manager was not all that keen on him. All we ever want to do is just to play football. However, he may find it difficult to surpass Bazunu in the We've been very lucky in the Irish team that we have really good goalkeepers.
