MCHALE JOINS DUNDALK ON LOAN

Dundalk FC are delighted to announce the signing of promising young centre-half Seán McHale on a season-long loan deal from Saint Patrick’s Athletic.

The deal between the clubs was completed on Friday afternoon, with the 19-year-old Meath native, who currently has exams at Maynooth University, set for his second loan spell away from the Saints having spent last year with Wexford.

The former Corduff and Shelbourne youngster joined St Pat’s in January 2022 and won the Under-19 League in his first season.
