- Paul O'HEHIR

CAOIMHIN KELLEHER has been tipped to become one of the great Premier League goalkeepers.

The Corkman is on the verge of a move to Brentford from Liverpool in a deal that could rise to €21m.

Kelleher skipped Ireland's training session in Dublin yesterday ahead of Friday's clash with Senegal to complete his Brentford medical.

Once all aspects of the transfer are completed he'll join up with Heimir Hallgrimsson's squad as a Bee.

Excel

And Everton defender Jake O'Brien believes Kelleher is going to excel as a first-choice goalkeeper in England's top flight.
