Wanderers can confirm the departure of young forward Conor Carty to St Patrick’s Athletic on a permanent basis.
Carty has signed a two-year deal with the League of Ireland side where he previously spent a successful spell on loan from the Whites in 2023.
The move gives the 22-year-old a chance to further his senior career with the Dublin-based club which finished third in the Premier Division last season to qualify for European competition.
It also means a return home for the Republic of Ireland U21 international, who also had spells on loan at Oldham Athletic, Gateshead and Doncaster Rovers during his time with the Whites after signing for the B Team from Wolverhampton Wanderers in June, 2022.
Carty – whose sole senior appearance for Wanderers saw him score in an EFL Trophy tie at Tranmere in September, 2022 – recently returned to fitness following a knee injury sustained playing for Doncaster last January and he joins St Pat’s ahead of the start of their new season.
Wanderers wish Conor well in the future and thank him for his contribution during his time with the club.
Meanwhile, midfielder Nelson Khumbeni (above) has returned to Wanderers at the end of his successful loan spell at Accrington Stanley.
The 22-year-old made 24 appearances for Stanley, including a start at Anfield in the Reds’ FA Cup third-round loss to Liverpool last Saturday, during his half-season stay with the League Two side.
