Sean O’Connell commits his future to the Kingdom as he signs his first contract with Kerry FC

Kerry FC is delighted to confirm that Sean O’Connell has committed his future to the green and gold as he signs his first contract with the Mounthawk Park outfit.

Sean, who is just 20 years of age, has been one of Kerry FC’s leading players since the club’s inception 2 years ago. Sean has gone on to make 71 appearances for Kerry at his favoured left-back position. With another year of Senior football now under his belt, the young Kerry man is one of the most experienced players in the Mounthawk dressing room. Having graduated from the Academy structures in the club, Sean now joins the list of players in the club to be rewarded for his efforts with his first contract with the league’s newcomers.

Speaking after he signed his contract, Sean O’Connell told kerryfc.com, “I’m delighted to have signed again for 2025 looking forward to a very exciting year. Hopefully, we can give more back to the fans who have been with us for the last two seasons. I can’t wait to get back out there and give my all for the Kerry jersey again in the new season”

 

Also speaking after Sean O’Connell’s commitment to the club, First Team Head Coach Conor McCarthy said, “It’s fantastic to have Sean back with us for the 2025 campaign. I said it a couple of times now: I think Sean is one of the best fullbacks in the league. He’s had a phenomenal 2 years for a guy that recently just turned 20. I’m very much looking forward to working with him again in the run in to the new season and I’m sure the supporters will be delighted with the news that Sean has recommitted to Mounthawk Park for the new campaign.”
