David Healy welcomes Matthew Fitzpatrick to Windsor Park
“I’m delighted to welcome Matthew Fitzpatrick to the club on a 2 year contract.
His signing will be registered on the opening of the transfer next month and I’m delighted that we’ve reached agreement with Glenavon to secure the transfer of a quality player who I’ve admired for some time.
He’s a proven, experienced player who knows our league well and he’s keen to come on board, as we aim to recapture the Premiership title in the season ahead.
I want to thank our board for their backing in bringing such a talented forward player to our squad and I’m particularly grateful to our recruitment and development manager, Willie McKeown for all his hard work in bringing negotiations to the desired, positive outcome.
I’m really looking forward to working with Matthew when he joins the squad for pre season training and our supporters will no doubt give him their traditional warm welcome to the club, when they get an opportunity to do so.
He’s an important signing for us and our supporters can be assured we are working hard to bring other quality signings to the club and as always, we will advise everyone once the contracts have been formally agreed.”
