Drogheda United are delighted to announce the signing of midfielder Darragh Noone.

The 25-year-old came through the academy at Bray Wanderers before making his senior debut for the Seagulls in 2016.

He remained with Bray for the 2017 and 2018 seasons before joining Shelbourne in 2019.

Noone last played in the League of Ireland for Sligo Rovers in 2020 before he signed for Spanish third division side Talavera.

Since returning to Ireland, Noone has coached and played with LSL side Beechwood and now becomes Kevin Doherty’s second signing of the summer after goalkeeper Lee Steacy.

“I had a chat with Daire Doyle. I went up Thursday night, had a look and really enjoyed the session and the group.

“I’m very excited. It’s just a strong squad, it’s mixed with good youth and good experience and as you can see even from the most recent games, all the home games, it’s such a tough place to go to, Head in the Game Park.

“I’m excited to be going into a strong team that are really pushing to win games and pick up points in every game they play in,” Noone explained.
