Sligo Rovers have announced the signing of winger Karl O’Sullivan from Finn Harps on a two-year contract.
O’Sullivan was an important part of the Finn Harps side that finished 8th this year, as the midfielder played in 32 of the 36 league games, scoring 4 goals and proving his versatility in a number of positions.
The 22-year-old joined Harps from Limerick in 2020 and had two successful seasons in Donegal.
On joining Harps’ North-West rivals, O’Sullivan said: “I’m thrilled to be here. I’ve been speaking with Liam for the last couple of months and he told me what he felt I could bring to the team. As an opposition player you would dread coming to Sligo and especially when they are going well.
“There is a great atmosphere in The Showgrounds and the club has a very big following. I’m hoping to chip in with goals and assists from as early as possible.
“I’ve played everywhere with Harps and Limerick but I feel winger is my strongest position. It’s a fresh start for me. I really enjoyed my time with Finn Harps, everyone at the club is brilliant. I’ve been putting the work in this month in order to ready for pre-season and I can hit the ground running here.
“I’m very excited to play for the club and in the last two seasons Liam has led the team to the top four which is what you want. There’s European football as well so I can’t wait to get started.”
