Newry City AFC are delighted to confirm that Dane Lind has joined the club (subject to international clearance). The California born striker, most recently on the books of Orange County Soccer Club U23s in USL League 2 and a graduate of Amherst College, joins having impressed during a brief trial spell.

Darren Mullen stated: “Dane is a very talented young player who arrived with us after missing the window down south. Sometimes a signing comes out of the blue and this is certainly one of them. He has arrived after doing very well at college level in the USA and is keen to impress at this level. He is strong quick and has a clever eye for goal so he’s a welcome addition to our squad.”

When speaking to newrycityafc.co.uk Dane stated: “ I’m really excited to be joining Newry this year. Everyone involved with the club has just been spectacular and so kind in getting me all settled. This is obviously a big change for me coming from The States but it’s great to know that I’m surrounded by so many good people and such a great group of guys on the team.”

Welcome to the Showgrounds Dane!
