Michael O'Halloran

Experienced winger Michael O’Halloran joins Head Coach Warren Joyce’s side on a two-year deal from Glasgow Rangers ahead of the 2018/19 season. The versatile forward began his senior career with Bolton Wanderers after progressing through the ranks at youth level. During his time at the club he was loaned out to Sheffield United, Carlisle United and Tranmere Rovers in a bid to gain first-team minutes. In 2014, the Glasgow-born attacker returned to Scotland, joining Scottish Premier League side St Johnstone, where he went on to clock up 89 appearances, scoring 16 goals. He helped the Saints to clinch the 2013/14 Scottish Cup in their first-ever Final appearance in the competition, which also gained a place in the 2014/15 Europa League qualifying rounds. In November 2015, his impressive displays earned a Scottish Premiership Player of the Month award, attracting interest from hometown club Rangers and in February 2016, he signed for the British giants on a four-and-a-half-year deal. In 28 appearances, he scored three goals and created six assists, as the Gers secured the 2015/16 Scottish Championship and Challenge Cup. In the summer of 2017, he returned to St Johnstone on loan, where he scored five times in 18 appearances in all competitions.
