Shamrock Rovers star Trevor Clarke confirms move to Rotherham United

Shamrock Rovers defender Trevor Clarke has confirmed his move to League One side Rotherham United today.

The 21-year-old was on the Hoops bench for the first qualifying round second leg victory over SK Brann in the Europa League, with Sean Kavanagh selected in his place.

It is believed the deal with the League One club is worth around €120,000 to Rovers, and Clarke, who was formerly with Championship side Middlesbrough, was in the final year of his Hoops contract.

"All at Shamrock Rovers wish Trevor all the very best of luck with his new club," the club said today.

"Trevor has been with the Hoops since joining in 2015 and made his first-team debut in the Leinster Senior Cup semi-final away to Bohemians.

"Aged 21 years of age, Trevor played a total of 97 matches for Shamrock Rovers which included 79 starts and scored 5 goals.

"He represented the Republic of Ireland at Under 16, Under 17 and Under 19 level and earned his first call-up to the Under 21s in September of last year.

"Trevor won the hearts of the Hoops’ supporters with his runs along the wing and his desire to take on opponents and leave them for dead.

"He has been voted as the SRFC Young Player of the Year in 2016 and 2017 and won the PFAI Young Player of the Year award in 2017."
