Wolves introduced on Tuesday afternoon that that they had closed a deal for Burnley defender Nathan Collins, who joins from Burnley on a five-year deal. The 21-year-old has grow to be the most costly Irish participant in historical past.
That’s based on the Irish Independent, who say his €24m (£20.21m) payment is in extra of the earlier report, set by Robbie Keane. Eire’s prime scorer in worldwide soccer with 68 targets, Keane moved from Tottenham to Liverpool for £20m again in 2008, though that transfer famously didn’t work out with Keane going again to Spurs lower than six months later.
Collins moved to Burnley from Stoke Metropolis in 2021 for £12.6m and after only one season, has proven sufficient for Wolves to be satisfied that he’s adequate for Premier League soccer. The velocity of his rise is simply as evident in his worldwide profession. Collins solely has six caps for Eire, regardless of the nationwide staff being fast to blood kids underneath Stephen Quinn.
