Glentoran Football Club is delighted to announce the signing of USA born midfielder Dillon Powers.

Texan Dillon (31) joins after a spell with Orange County SC of California in the USL Championship, the second-tier senior football in the USA. He spent the previous two seasons with Dundee United, helping them win promotion then consolidate in the SPFL. He has been capped by the USA at Under 18 and Under 20 level.

Dillon’s father, Michael Powers, had a long and successful football career with the Dallas Sidekicks where for three years he was a team mate of Glentoran 1970s legend, Victor Moreland.

Mick McDermott: “We have been tracking and in communication with Dillon since his time at Dundee United. He had considered joining us in the summer but decided to return to the US where he completed a successful season with Orange County.

He is a player with experience in MLS, Scottish Premier league as well as US National teams and can play several key positions. His natural position is central midfield where his ability, experience and physical presence will definitely add to our already strong team.

We know that he will be a success at Glentoran.”
