Galway United youngster pens new deal ahead of 2023 campaign

Francely Lomboto has signed a new deal at Galway United, tying him to the club for the 2023 season.

The former academy player made 23 first-team appearances last season in all competitions, scoring three goals for the Tribesmen.

Lomboto (22) said: “Galway is a really special place for me and my family, so coming back to play in front of the fans in Eamonn Deacy Park was a no-brainer.

“Our aim this season is to gain promotion, of course. Obviously, we were very close to doing that this year, but we fell a little bit short in the end.

“I think we can all agree that everyone was disappointed with that.

“But the main thing for us is how you react to that and to try and turn things around next year. I think we’re ready to do that in 2023.”
