Yazdani joins Shelbourne

Former Republic of Ireland youth international winger Hussain Yazdani has joined Shelbourne.

The 20-year-old has signed a one-year contract with the Premier Division champions after spending the end of last term at Shamrock Rovers after being released by English club Coventry City last summer.

Tricky and pacy, the Dubliner was in the same underage side as rising Irish stars Willo Flood and Mark Yeates at Cherry Orchard and he is determined to prove his worth at Shelbourne this season.

“I’ve just signed this contract but my mind is already on earning another contract at Shels.”
