Daniel Kelly, born on 21 May 1996 (age 30), is an Irish right winger now with Shelbourne. His career, though, is shaped mainly by Dundalk, where he built the bulk of his senior record rather than just passing through.
Across five league seasons at Dundalk, Kelly made 116 appearances and scored 26 goals. His best return came in 2019, when he scored nine times in 34 league games, a solid output from wide areas and the sort of season that explains why that spell carries the most weight in his career.
At Shelbourne, he remains part of the first-team picture in 2026. He has made 23 league appearances and scored five goals, with 33 appearances and eight goals across all competitions. He has also contributed in Europe, scoring twice in four Conference League qualifying appearances and featuring six more times in the Conference League.
His current market value is around £128,000, according to Transfermarkt. Kelly’s career is best read as a strong Dundalk spell followed by continued regular involvement at Shelbourne.
