The Mayo man joins fellow League and Cup winning midfielder Robbie Benson who made the same move from Oriel Park ahead of last season.

The 27 year old had been rumoured to be in talks with his former Dundalk housemate since the end of the FAI Cup winning season but has finally agreed terms with the club.

He said: “Since Stephen made the contact with me and explained what he is doing here, it excited me straight away.

“Stephen, having played with him at Dundalk, he was our captain and so much more than that to us, it was how he held himself, how he went about his business. 

“When he was looking to bring me here, it was something I could never say no to.”
