IRISH DEFENDER KEVIN Foley has joined FC Copenhagen after his contract with Wolves was cancelled.

The 30-year-old full-back, who had been with the Championship club since joining from Luton Town in 2007, has been snapped up by former Wolves boss Stale Solbakken after spending the last year on loan at Blackpool.

“We thank Kevin for his excellent service to Wolves over many years,” said Wolves head coach Kenny Jackett.

“On behalf of everyone at Wolves I would like to wish him all the very best in his future career.”

Capped eight times for Ireland at senior level, Foley has not played for the Boys in Green since being replaced by Paul McShane in Giovanni Trapattoni’s final 23-man squad for Euro 2012.

Ten-time champions Copenhagen are currently second in the domestic league.

    Great move. He’ll probably get game time in Europe as well.

    Good luck to him. Treated shamefully by Trap when being cut from the squad before the Euros. Deserves any good breaks that go his way.
