TRANSFER: "I'm over the moon!" - Josh Keeley Joins Tottenham Hotspur

Josh Keeley has joined Tottenham Hotspur for an undisclosed fee.  

The 19-year-old moved to London earlier this week and began training with his new club.  

Josh joined the St Patrick's Athletic Academy from Belvedere in 2018 and won a league and cup double with our U15s in his first season.  

The goalkeeper, who is in Ireland Underage international at U16, U17 and U19 quickly progressed to our U17s where he won the league title in 2019 before becoming a league Champion again in 2020 as he played a key role in our U19s league final win against Bohemians, that win saw him make two appearances in last season's UEFA Youth League against Red Star Belgrade.  

Josh, from Dunboyne, signed his first professional contract with St Pat's in January 2021 and made his first team debut off the bench in a 6-0 FAI Cup win at home to Bray Wanderers last July.  

The former Shelbourne, St Kevin's Boys and Belvedere goalkeeper made his first league start, aged 18, in a 2-2 draw against Finn Harps at Richmond Park in the last league match of last season.  

Keeley was also part of our FAI Cup winning squad last season, a dramatic penalty shootout win over Bohemians at Aviva Stadium in front of almost 40,000 supporters.
