Cup final hero Achille Campion on the way back to City

Cork City’s 2017 FAI Cup final hero Achille Campion will return to first-team contention for the Leesiders next month as his loan deal with Irish League side Linfield expires.

The French striker left City for the Windsor Park club in January. Campion scored three goals in 17 appearances for the Blues but now leaves David Healy’s side to return to the League of Ireland as he bids to revive his career at Turner’s Cross.

“It’ll be interesting to see, when he comes back in,” said Cork City boss John Caulfield, speaking ahead of the Premier Division clash with Bray Wanderers on Friday.
