Manager, Kris Lindsay, has moved swiftly to secure the signature of talented young goalkeeper, Conner Byrne, on a three year professional contract.
Seventeen year old Conner has played at numerous underage levels, for Northern Ireland, on the International Stage. Conner made his debut for Dungannon Swifts against Linfield in the League Cup game on 8th October 2019. He played a total of 14 games and kept 3 clean sheets.
Goalkeeper Coach, Stuart Addis, had this to say;
“I’m absolutely delighted for Conner on signing this contract, it’s nothing more than he deserved. He came in last season for us when we needed him to and he was superb. He grew in confidence the more games he played. Conner is a pleasure to work with, his attitude and work ethic is excellent. I’ve no doubt that Conner has a bright future ahead of him in his footballing career.”
Conner Byrne – “Ever since I signed for Dungannon last season, the Club, coaches and players have treated me brilliantly and I’ve enjoyed every minute that I have been here. The goalkeeping coach, Stuart Addis, has been top class and I have learned an awful lot from him since I joined the Club.”
Congratulations on your professional contract, Conner, from all at Dungannon Swifts Football Club.
