Bohs midfielder Mullins becomes latest Irish teen to join Premier League Brighton

Eighteen-year-old midfielder has agreed a two-and-a-half-year deal until June 2025.

BOHEMIANS MIDFIELDER JAMIE Mullins has joined Brighton and Hove Albion on a two-and-a-half-year deal until June 2025.

Brighton announced the move on Wednesday, with 18-year-old Mullins joining a growing list of young Irish talent at the Premier League club.

As well as former Bohs team-mate Evan Ferguson, who marked his first Premier League start on Tuesday with a goal against Everton, Mullins also links up with former League of Ireland youngsters Andrew Moran โ€” who came off the bench to make his Premier League debut in the same game โ€” and James Furlong.

Mullins will initially join Brightonโ€™s U21 squad, and the Ireland U18 international revealed that Fergusonโ€™s insights on the club made his decision an easy one.

โ€œI canโ€™t wait to get started,โ€ he said. โ€œI played alongside Evan Ferguson at Bohemians and we know each other really well.

โ€œWe spoke a lot about what Brighton has to offer young players and the pathway they have, so it made it a really easy decision to join.โ€

Mullins made 17 appearances for Bohs in the League of Ireland last season.

โ€œBohemian FC can confirm that midfielder and academy graduate Jamie Mullins has joined English Premier League side Brighton for an undisclosed fee,โ€ they said.

โ€œEveryone at Dalymount Park wishes Jamie the very best of luck at his new club.โ€

Meanwhile, Cork City midfielder Dylan McGlade has completed his move to Australian club Hume City FC.

The Melbourne club, who play semi-professional football in the National Premier Leagues Victoria, announced the signing on Tuesday.
