Bohemians have signed centre-back Sam Todd from Derry City on a multi-year contract.
The 27-year-old Donegal man, who has also lined out for Finn Harps, UCD and Larne, made 30 appearances in the Premier Division last season.
Welcoming Todd to Dalymount Park, manager Alan Reynolds said: "We are delighted to bring a player of Sam's calibre into the club. He’s coming here with a lot of experience but a lot of hunger too.
"He’s a good age at 27, I feel he’s coming into the prime of his career so we are looking forward to him playing his best football yet.
"He’s big, he’s strong, plays on the left side of defence, and I feel that he will fit in perfectly for what we are trying to build and achieve here."
Todd said: "I am delighted to be here, it’s a massive club and the fans are unbelievable. I know there is expectation to achieve here at Bohs and I’m looking forward to that.
"Qualifying for Europe this year was huge for the club and that’s something I am really excited for next year. I’ve been lucky enough to experience Europa Conference League football before so I know how big those games are and what they mean to the players, fans and the club.
"It’s an important year for the club. It’s also the last in such an iconic venue before Dalymount is redeveloped, so everyone wants to make it a year to remember and I’m looking forward to that challenge and getting going."
Meanwhile, First Division side Kerry FC have announced that their all-time leading goalscorer Ryan Kelliher (32 goals in 81 games) has penned a new multi-year deal with the Kingdom ahead of the 2026 season.
