Patrick Kelly joined West Ham United on a three-year professional deal from NIFL Premiership club Coleraine in July 2022.

Kelly made himself a regular in the West Ham United U18s since his move and earned his first appearance for the U21s in a Papa Johns Trophy group stage win at Walsall on 30 August 2022, before making his first Premier League 2 appearance away to Manchester City a few days later.

The Northern Irish midfielder enjoyed a positive 2022/23 season with Kevin Keen’s U18s, featuring 19 times for the side across all competitions.

Kelly played a key role in the side’s historic double as the young Hammers won the FA Youth Cup and the U18 Premier League South.
