I was released by Ryan Reynolds and am fighting to stay in the EFL while my brother battles to win the Premier League
LIVERPOOL goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher is playing an unexpectedly pivotal part in the Reds’ title charge this season.
The keeper, 25, has been called upon to deputise for injured Liverpool No1 Alisson.
The Irishman has started Liverpool’s last 13 games with a return date not initially put on Alisson’s injury.
Alisson is expected to return to first-team training next week but will be eased in cautiously.
That will see the keeper play a vital role in The Reds’ run-in with just seven Premier League games remaining.
But Caoimhin’s brother is involved in an altogether different challenge as the end of the season draws closer.
Fiacre Kelleher, 28, is a centre-back that currently plays for Colchester United.
The Essex club are second bottom of League Two and struggling for survival.
They are five points off 21st placed Grimsby Town – albeit with three games in hand.
Fiacre came through the academy at Celtic before moving to Oxford United in 2017.

Notably, he joined Hollywood-owned Wrexham in 2020, making 42 appearances for the club.
But Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney opted not to renew his one year contract at the end of their first season at the helm, leaving him to join Bradford as a free agent.
An injury hit campaign has seen Fiacre make just 10 appearances this season, but he has recently returned from a torn thigh muscle.
The defender has been slowly eased back into first-team football since the end of March.
