Bailey Peacock-Farrell
[21] Nearly two years after making his debut, Peacock-Farrell played his second match for Leeds on 7 March 2018 at home to league leaders Wolverhampton Wanderers, with first-choice goalkeeper Wiedwald dropped due to poor form.[26] He put in several man-of-the-match performances, including a 1–0 defeat against Aston Villa, after which Dan Long of Sky Sports wrote that Peacock-Farrell "looks incredibly assured between the sticks, particularly astounding given his age".[44] In June 2019, Peacock-Farrell revealed he had turned down the option of starting pre-season training a week later after featuring on international duty for Northern Ireland, in order to compete for the goalkeeping position with Casilla.[47] Peacock-Farrell signed for Premier League club Burnley on 2 August 2019 on a four-year contract with the option of a further year for an undisclosed fee,[48] reported by BBC Sport as £2.5 million.[51] He made his debut on 1 August 2021, at home to Huddersfield Town in the first round of the 2021–22 EFL Cup, keeping a clean sheet in a 0–0 draw after extra time, although the team would eventually lose in a penalty shoot-out.[56] He would win Wednesday's Player of the Month again for December, which would see a clean sheet against Portsmouth and his fourth penalty save for club and country of the season, against Crewe Alexandra.[59] On 30 June 2024, Peacock-Farrell joined recently relegated League One club Birmingham City for an undisclosed fee; he signed a four-year contract.[66] Peacock-Farrell was called up the Northern Ireland U21 squad in March 2018 by manager Ian Baraclough for their matches against Spain and Iceland in 2019 UEFA European Under-21 Championship qualification.[70] Peacock-Farrell revealed in September that he had been approached by members of the England national team staff about the possibility of changing his allegiance, which he would be able to do since he had not yet made his competitive debut for Northern Ireland.
