Charlton Athletic are delighted to announce the signing of goalkeeper Tiernan Brooks from Gateshead. 

The 23-year-old has put pen to paper on a two-and-a-half year deal, with a club option of a further year.

Manager Director James Rodwell commented: "Tiernan is an excellent, young goalkeeper with a bright future ahead of him. The departure of Ashley has freed up space to allow us to bring in Tiernan and we’re looking forward to watching him develop over time at Charlton."

Manager Nathan Jones added: "Tiernan is someone we're delighted to bring in. He's been an excellent keeper for Gateshead. Ashley Maynard-Brewer had an opportunity to leave and we felt that was the right thing to do for him, provided we could bring in a younger one that could really add competition and quality, and could be with us for a number of years. We feel we've done that with Tiernan."

After completing his move, Brooks said: "I'm buzzing it's finally over the line and I really can't wait to get going. I came to The Valley when I was younger to watch Charlton play Sheffield Wednesday and it's a beautiful stadium."

The Sheffield-born stopper came through the academy at Notts County and gained valuable senior experience during a number of loan spells, before joining Gateshead in the summer of 2024.

A Republic of Ireland youth international, Brooks has represented his country five times at U21s level.

    Third choice keeper, at 23 he might turn into something

    Planning for the future, apparently we're in negotiation with Welling United to sign up their recruitment team.

    I probably would have waited to announce this one until we'd done some better business.

    Third choice behind Kaminski and Mannion, but that's not a bad thing and I doubt we've blown whatever budget we had on this one. Not exciting though.

    So we’ve paid a fee for a third keeper who is in to replace someone who cost us no money had had more experience. 

    Just fuck off 
    Bit ott, he has probably cost about 30 pence... I'd guess AMB wanted to leave to play games at his age and we have signed someone on basically a free transfer as third choice with potential

    We do not need three senior keepers, he takes up a squad place. It doesn’t matter how much or little money we’ve spent on him it’s a waste

    Maybe Ash wanted the move? Maybe we got more money for Ash than we paid for Tiernan? Maybe we couldn't get insurance anymore on our Antipodean keeper who seemingly ran into every 1 on 1 head first?

    As the kids would say, what a crash out, how cringe

    It's literally marginal though, makes no difference to our budget... If they see some potential so be it. He will be earning fuck all too

    Was always going to happen with AMB leaving and the two U21 keepers on loan. It's cheap business and a bit of a punt, hardly going to affect our other business
