Ruesha Littlejohn and Katie Keane depart Shamrock Rovers
Shamrock Rovers have announced that Ruesha Littlejohn and Kate Keane have left the club.
Littlejohn leaves Rovers after just three months, with the club confirming they had an agreement with the Republic of Ireland international that they wouldn't stand in her way should she decide to pursue other full-time football opportunites outside of Ireland during the July transfer window.
While Littlejohn's next move has yet to be revealed, Keane is believed to be closing in on a move to Leicester City in the English Women's Super League with the Foxes impressed by the 18-year-old goalkeeper's displays for the Hoops.

Keane moved to Rovers for the 2025 season after helping Athlone Town win the Women's Premier Division title and reach the Women's FAI Cup the previous year.
"Shamrock Rovers F.C. can confirm the departures of Katie Keane and Ruesha Littlejohn from our Women's First Team squad," the club began in a statement.
"Katie, who joined the club ahead of the 2025 season, will complete a permanent transfer to the Women's Super League in England.
"Ruesha, who became a Hoop in March of this year, is also set to move on. The club and Ruesha had a mutual agreement in place, allowing her to pursue full-time football opportunities outside of Ireland during the July transfer window.
"We would like to thank both Katie and Ruesha for their contributions to Shamrock Rovers over the past number of months and wish them every success in their future careers."
