Dungannon Swifts announce signing of Michael Carvill on one-year deal

Dungannon Swifts have announced the signing of Michael Carvill.

Carvill has signed a one-year deal with the Stangmore Park outfit.

It sees the former Linfield and Crusaders forward return to the club where he spent the end of last season on loan.

Kris Lindsay told Dungannon's website: “I am delighted to get Michael over the line. He is a player with lots of experience and will bring massive positives not only on the pitch but also in the changing room.

"We obviously had Michael on loan last season, frustratingly he had a few niggling injuries that hampered him but in the last 3/4 games of the season we got a glimpse of the quality he possesses.

"I am looking forward to him taking that into the season ahead. “

Carvill insists he is relishing the challenge of trying to help Dungannon climb the Premiership table next season.

“I came down here last year and got injured early on which is a bet of a set back, but as soon as I came down and saw the club obviously I really enjoyed it.

"I saw the opportunity to get out and play football something that it very, very important obviously. The Club welcomed me with open arms during my loan deal, during which I didn’t really do exactly how I wanted to do, as the injury killed me a bit.

"Now I am here and will get a season under my belt and really push on from there.

"There is so much going on in the league at the minute with talk about full time, clubs doing this and big signings coming in, more money and involvement.

"A club like Dungannon have to accept those challenges and really look forward to it."
