Shelbourne add to squad with signing of John Martin from Dundalk

Shelbourne have confirmed the signing of attacker John Martin from Dundalk.

The 24-year-old made 73 appearances for the Lilywhites, scoring 10 goals, though at the end of last season the Oriel Park club stated the player would be on the move.

Prior to joining Dundalk, Martin played with Waterford and was also capped at underage level for the Republic of Ireland.

Sean Gannon (Shamrock Rovers), Keith Ward (Dundalk), Lorcan Healy (UCD) and Dean Williams (Bohemians) are the other signings made so far by Shels.

On their latest purchase, head coach Damien Duff said: "With so much attacking talent leaving the club during this window, it is imperative that we replace it. John has been an attacking force in this league for a few years now. I love his hunger to score goals and win games.

"On top of his pace, power and technical ability, he has a great presence on the pitch too. He will fit in brilliantly with the players and our culture."
