Yoyo Mahdy swaps Shelbourne for Finn Harps

Yoyo Mahdy has joined Finn Harps from Shelbourne.

And Harps boss Ollie Horgan has thanked the fans involved in the ‘500 Club’ for helping to finance the deal and get it over the line.

Forward Mahdy, 24, joined Shels from UCD at the start of last season and scored four goals as the Reds raced to the First Division title.

“I’m really excited to be joining the club,” he said of his move to Harps.

“Ollie got in touch and we’d a good chat about his ambitions for the club and his plans for me and where I fit in.

“A big reason I wanted to come to Harps is they’re an established Premier Division club at this stage, with some great players, a passionate fanbase and it’s really exciting.”

And Horgan said: “I’m delighted that Yoyo has joined the club. He’s eager to get going and prove himself back in the Premier.

“It’s a testament to the support of the 500 Club that we’re able to bring the likes of Yoyo in who will hopefully be a big player for us in the season ahead.

“Fans getting behind us is absolutely vital to our success in what will be a savage division.”
