Cobh Ramblers have announced that they have re-signed 20-year-old Tiernan O’Brien ahead of the start of the 2024 First Division campaign.

O’Brien is with the club since 2018 having played under 15, under 17 and under 19 and in 2022 he was Cobh Ramblers Academy Player of the Year.

The Fermoy native was an integral part of former manager Shane Keegan’s squad in 2023 where he made 28 appearances and notched 4 goals as Ramblers progressed all the way to the play off stages of the league.

Cobh’s new manager Gary Hunt is happy to tie down O’ Brien until November 2024 and he spoke to the club’s media team saying: “I'm delighted to secure Tiernan for the 2024 season after an impressive campaign last year.

“Having got to know Tiernan I can see his ambition to kick on and he will be an exciting player for us in this coming season.’’

The player himself is also looking forward to another year at St Colman’s Park and he said:

“I’m delighted to have re-signed for Cobh Ramblers again for the coming season, Last season was a very enjoyable and competitive season and no doubt this season will be the same, Excited to get going again!”

The Rams kick off the 2024 season with an away trip to Limerick where they will play Treaty United on Friday, 16 February.
