Shelbourne have signed Sean Moore from West Ham United on a "multi-year" contract, subject to international clearance. The highly-regarded 19-year-old arrives at Tolka Park following a spell in England with the Premier League club's Under-21 squad. Moore first broke onto the scene with Cliftonville in the NIFL Premiership, his performances for the Reds in 2022/23 saw the teenager named in the NIFL Premiership Team of the Year and win the NI Football Writers' Association Young Player of the Year award. Moore was a regular for West Ham's development side during the first half of the 2024/25 campaign and capped off an impressive year by making his Republic of Ireland U21 debut in a friendly against Sweden in November. He finished the season with five goals, making him the joint-third top scorer for the Hammers' U21s. Moore said: "I'm absolutely buzzing to be here. Shelbourne is a massive club and I'm delighted to get the deal done. I'm ready to get to work, hit the ground running, and show the fans what I'm all about." Shels boss Joey O'Brien believes Moore is an "exciting" addition: "Sean's a top young player with huge potential. He came into the game at a young age with Cliftonville and earned a great education over in England with West Ham. "Now he's ready to kick on with the next stage of his career, and we're delighted he's put his trust in us. He's an exciting player to watch, really positive in how he plays the game. He can play in multiple positions on both sides of the pitch, which gives us great flexibility."
