Boudiaf Signs at The Showgrounds

Newry Manager Darren Mullen is pleased to welcome ex Drogheda Utd player Mo Boudiaf to The Showgrounds.

Mullen commented “Mo is an attacking player with loads of skill. His ability to beat players at pace and create chances for others will hopefully be a big asset for us this season. He has already shown in training what he is capable of so he will be a welcome addition to the squad.”

Mo Boudiaf commented “I am really excited to have signed for Newry, the players and coaching staff have been extremely welcoming so I am looking forward to seeing what happens in the coming season. Hard work continues.”

Clarke Signs at The Showgrounds

Having excelled at Gaelic football Newry manager Darren Mullen has offered ex Armagh player Jamie Clarke the opportunity to prove his worth on the soccer field, a chance the Crossmaglen native is keen to exploit.

Mullen commented “Jamie is obviously well known for his exploits on the Gaelic pitch but he has shown in the short time he has been with us that he can add something to our attacking line up. He’s a smart skilful player and is keen to show what he can do at this level of football. It will obviously take him a while to bed in but I’m looking forward to seeing him playing in a Newry shirt.”

Clarke commented “I’m delighted to sign for Newry, everyone has been very welcoming in helping me settle in. It is an extremely close knit club and that comes through on the pitch. Darren has been excellent with me and I’ve been very impressed with him and the coaching staff’s plans for the season ahead. There’s a brilliant mix youth and experience, including my own hometown friend James Teelan, who is an exceptional talent. I’ll put my head down now and put in the work to help the team in Premiership.”
