A massive congrats to James Roche, Dan Ring, Ray Offor and Taylor McCarthy who have all been called into the Irish U19s squad for the upcoming fixtures against France!
Derby are currently sixth in the Championship play-off places.
Offor made his first team debut at Shels in the FAI Cup under former boss Damien Duff in 2024 and was also part of the club’s Uefa Youth League campaign last year.
The former Balbriggan schoolboy joined the Reds in 2023 after a season with Bohemians. He has also been included in squads for the Republic of Ireland U18 and U19s.
Offor was able to explore his options with clubs in England after turning 18 and the deal is likely to be announced in the coming days.
