Leitrim star Mulligan eyes Dublin club move

Leitrim forward Emlyn Mulligan insists he has no plans to declare for the Dublin footballers despite seeking a club transfer to the St Brigid’s club in Blanchardstown.

And while Mulligan has spoken to Declan Darcy, the last man to captain Leitrim to a Connacht title in 1994, he does not intend on following in the former Aughawillan club man’s footsteps in playing for the Dubs.

Mulligan (25) has filed transfer papers and is now waiting for clearance from his home club, Melvin Gaels, and Leitrim GAA chiefs to make the move to the capital.
