Derry City FC has this evening confirmed that striker Danny Mullen has left the club following the end of his current contract.

The 30-year old Scot had arrived at the Brandywell in the summer of 2023 after spells with Livingston, St Mirren, Dundee and Partick Thistle.

In all, he racked up 86 appearances for City; netting 21 times during that time.

Manager Tiernan Lynch said he wanted to thank the striker for his efforts this season.

“We were having to mix things up a bit as long-term injuries affected us in the second half of the campaign and Danny certainly played his part in ensuring we finished the season strongly.

“He always gave everything and I wish him every success in his career going forward.”

Mullen is the latest player to leave the club today following the earlier exit of club captain Mark Connolly. Connolly's departure marks the end of his three-and-a-half-year tenure at the Brandywell.
