West Ham duo Mipo Odubeko and Armstrong Oko-Flex among Irish players released by Premier League clubs
West Ham pair Mipo Odubeko and Armstrong Oko-Flex have been released by the Europa Conference League winners.
The pair failed to make the grade at the London Stadium at first-team level but will be hoping that they can push on again at their new club.
Odubeko was a summer 2019 arrival at West Ham from Manchester United and the striker made two appearances in the first team.
They both came in the FA Cup during the 2020/21 campaign. He also enjoyed loan spells with Huddersfield Town, Doncaster Rovers and Port Vale.
Oko-Flex, 21, joined the Irons from Celtic in 2021 and made one first team appearance.
He featured on 35 occasions for West Ham’s under-21 side and scored 14 goals before spending time on loan with Championship side Swansea City.
Meanwhile, Brighton have confirmed the departure of former Ireland under-17 international Matt Everitt.
Everitt, 20, departed the Seagulls after a near six-year stint at the club – and he also played for the Boys in Green at under-19 level.
Former Bohemians loanee Sam Packham has also left Brighton – while Shane Duffy’s departure from Fulham has also been confirmed by the Premier League.
The Ireland international has already joined Norwich City ahead of next season.
Meanwhile, Ciaran Clark has left Newcastle United – while Lee Harkin has been released by Wolves.
Ireland’s problems run far deeper than Kenny’s Greek tragedy – we are where we deserve to be https://t.co/EHoW20xV6Hpic.twitter.com/otf5sED9EM
