Glentoran Football Club is delighted to announce the signing of Conor McMenamin from Cliftonville.

Conor (25) had an earlier spell with the club in the 2015-16 season, before joining Warrenpoint Town and subsequently Cliftonville. He moved from his original position of centre forward to now play as a left sided forward and has enjoyed great success with the Reds, including twice winning the Northern Ireland Player of the Month Award while at Solitude.

Moving in the other direction is Paul O’Neill.

Mick McDermott: “We are excited to secure the signature of Conor, arguably the hottest property in the league at this time.

I’ve always said that we will be interested when quality players become available. Conor clearly fits that profile and we acted swiftly to secure a deal.

Conor had multiple offers during this window, and it shows the direction Glentoran are headed when we can attract a player of this quality. This project at Glentoran continues to move forward and we know Conor will contribute in a big way in the coming weeks, months and years.

Welcome back to the Glens Conor!

Paul O’Neill has gone to Cliftonville. Since my arrival at the Club Paul has been an important member of our team: he has been dedicated, shown great professionalism and created some great memories with some Important goals. I think the biggest compliment I can pay him is that he is a great person and a dedicated young man.

Paul has sought a new challenge where he desires to play on a more consistent basis. That is football, the ball always rolls forward and players move on.

I honestly wish him the best and he knows he will always be welcome at the Oval”. 

A Glens TV interview with Conor will be published here tomorrow.
