Caoimhín Kelleher’s move to Brentford will spell a €3 million pay-day for his former Cork club Ringmahon Rangers.
Kelleher is set to move to the west London club from Liverpool for a reported initial fee of £12.5 million (€15 million).
The payment to Ringmahon would be on account of a 20 per cent sell-on clause negotiated by the club when Kelleher first joined Liverpool in 2015.
The sum, which could rise based on performance-related add-ons – which could increase the transfer fee to £18 million (€21 million) – would mark the largest sell-on sum ever received by an Irish club.
