Eddie Beach

Eddie Beach of Derry City was born in Lymington, England on 9 October 2003 (age 22).

Eddie Beach, born on 9 October 2003 (age 22), is a Welsh goalkeeper with Derry City. At 6ft 5in (1.96m), he has the frame expected of a modern keeper, though his career so far is still being shaped more by steady first-team work than by any great noise around him.

There was a brief spell at Kilmarnock in 2025-2026, where he made three league appearances, but Derry City is the club that has given his career its clearest shape. In 2026, he has made 18 Premier Division appearances for Derry, keeping himself relevant in the current side rather than drifting around the edges.

His market value is around £170,000, according to Transfermarkt. For now, Beach is a developing senior goalkeeper whose career is centred on regular football at Derry City.

Beach's 2026 league work came at Derry City, where he made 18 appearances, all starts, with no goals and one yellow card. For a 22-year-old goalkeeper coming off a disrupted spell around Chelsea loans and a short Kilmarnock stay, that points to a more stable first-team role rather than squad cover.

Beach's career has been shaped by movement rather than continuity. Chelsea were the parent club through loans at Gateshead and Crawley Town, before a free move to Kilmarnock and then a loan to Derry City. The lack of recorded Premiership appearances at Kilmarnock suggests he did not break through in Scotland, while the Derry spell gave him the clearest senior workload in the supplied data.

The transfer record shows a goalkeeper still being tested for level. Chelsea used loans to Gateshead and Crawley Town, then allowed him to leave for Kilmarnock on a free transfer in July 2025. Kilmarnock then sent him to Derry City on loan in February 2026, a move that looked designed to secure minutes rather than signal an immediate step up.
