As a young player, Sean Kelly stood out within Arsenal’s youth academy. A talented center back with a high soccer IQ, he captained Arsenal in the FA Youth Cup and played with Cesc Fabregas, one of the most accomplished players in English Premier League history. Kelly also has caps for the Irish U17 and U19s.
Through a series of unfortunate injuries, Kelly’s time with Arsenal came to an end, and he later played with Cork City, Galway United and Pike Rovers in Ireland.
Kelly’s life and career were transformed when he received a phone call from Lansdowne. The club offered him a chance to play and the opportunity for work in the construction business.
Kelly is now the first team manager at Lansdowne and is pursuing his coaching badges. A fantastic listen about the Kerry Mans journey. Enjoy!
