John O’Flynn Returns to Cork City

Exeter City striker John O’Flynn has returned to Ireland and has signed for one of his old clubs, Cork City. O’Flynn needs international clearance and will then be with Cork City until the end of the season. Exeter released O’Flynn at the end of the season.

Irishman John O’Flynn joined Exeter in 2010 from Barnet and scored 23 goals in 122 league games.

O’Flynn explained his delight about his return to the Cork City website: –

I’m delighted to be back, it’s like the good old days. The lads are flying and there is a good buzz around the place.

I’ve trained for the last few days and I have been really impressed with the standard; some of the young lads have great quality. It’s a big game Sunday, so we need to try and kick on. The lads have done really well all season, so hopefully I can play a part in a good season.

Commenting on the signing, City manager John Caulfield said:-

It’s brilliant to bring John in. Obviously we know him well from his last spell at the club, where he won a league title and an FAI Cup. He’s been in England for the last six years and about a month ago he expressed an interest in coming back.

It’s given everyone a lift. The squad can see that we are bringing in another top quality player and that shows our intentions. He has the right attitude to come into our set-up, and he has fitted into the group straight away.
