Key Huddersfield Town figure reacts as club seals deal for 25-year-old

Huddersfield Town’s Head of Footballing Operations Leigh Bromby has admitted that the club are excited to work with Connor Mahoney over the coming seasons.

As confirmed by the Terriers’ official website, Mahoney has signed a two-year deal with the Championship outfit.

This agreement includes an option for the club to extend his stay at the John Smith’s Stadium for another 12 months.

Mahoney has been on the lookout for a new club since Millwall’s decision to release him earlier this year.

Certainly no stranger to life in the Championship, Mahoney has represented Millwall, Birmingham City, Blackburn Rovers and Barnsley at this level during his career.

In the previous campaign, the attacking midfielder missed a chunk of action due to injury.

Limited to just 11 appearances in all competitions, the 25-year-old will be determined to make a positive start to life at Huddersfield when the 2022/23 campaign gets underway.

Mahoney could potentially make his competitive debut for his new side when they face Burnley on July 29th.

Reacting to Mahoney’s arrival, Bromby has suggested that the attacking midfielder will be able to provide competition for the likes of Sorba Thomas, Duane Holmes and Josh Koroma next season due to his versatility.

Speaking to the club’s website, Bromby said: “Connor is a very interesting player that we’re excited to work with.

“That further strengthens an area where
