Derry City can confirm that striker Sean Patton has signed a new contract at the Brandywell, and is going on loan to Finn Harps until the end of the current season.
The club’s new Technical Director, Mark McChrystal said that the well-regarded 17-year old would benefit from getting regular game time with the Ballybofey club.
“Sean has been in and around the first team squad here this season, and it is clear from the award of a new contract that he is part of our future plans.
“This is now an opportunity for him to get a run of games at senior level and he is the type of player who can make the most of the experience.
“Hopefully the move will benefit all parties and we look forward to monitoring Sean’s progress over the coming months.”
