Irish U21 'keeper David Odumosu set to make switch from Drogheda to St Pat's

The ‘keeper will provide competition for on-loan Joseph Anang.

GOALKEEPER DAVID ODUMOSU is set to follow his former manager Tim Clancy from Drogheda United to St Patrick’s Athletic, The42 understands. 

He is set to sign a multi-year deal at Richmond Park, with Drogheda entitled to a compensation fee. 

Odumosu was part of Drogheda’s promotion-winning team in 2020, and was shortlisted for the SSE Airtricity/Soccer Writers Ireland Goalkeeper of the Year award. He remained at Head in the Game Park for Drogheda’s return to the Premier Division, playing 31 games. He was subsequently called into the Republic of Ireland U21 set-up for European qualifiers against Luxembourg and Montenegro. 

The goalkeeper spent part of the off-season on trial at clubs in the UK, including Bolton Wanderers, none of whom ultimately offered him a contract. Rather than return to Drogheda, he has instead joined his former manager at Richmond Park. 

Odumosu isn’t the only player to make that move ahead of the 2022 season: Mark Doyle and Joe Redmond have also reunited with Clancy at Pat’s. Odumosu will provide competition for Joseph Anang, who has been signed on loan from West Ham United.

    Living as I do approx 3 miles from SAMs ancestral home I much prefer for the cup named after him to be temporarily resident in Dublin rather than Kerry. Well done the Dubs.

    Bless the Dubs, O Lord we pray, keep them on their winning way. Bless the colours, worn with pride, from Ballybough to Stepaside. Bless the banners and the flags, not to mention all the gags. Bless Gilroy too, the uncrowned king, let his name around Croke Park sing. Bless Bernard Brogan in the square, kicking points from everywhere. Bless Cluxton too, that agile ace, who guards his goal with style and grace. Bless the man with all the go, the dashing, dauntless, Cullen yoo. Bless the fans, that faithful throng, keep their voices loud and strong. Bless next All-Ireland final day, be sure the Dubs will rule OK

    McMenamin made some impact when he came on! Great performance by the Dubs, fully deserved to win! Coppers will be hopping tonight!

    Kerry will win I’d say, Dublin will be fair disappointed to come away with nothing, not even the minor!

    What the hell was wrong with Cluxton? running down the tunnel and not joining in the celebrations and generally looking miserable after the match and in the hotel on the Sunday game…whats up there??

    As much as I’d love a Dublin win, I think Kerry will be too clinical towards the end. Conditions have opened it up a bit though.
