Norwich City have completed the signing of 17-year old Glenn McCourt from SSE Airtricity Men's Premier Division side Derry City.
McCourt has signed a three-year contract, with a club option, and will initially join as part of the development pathway, playing with the club's Under-21s.
The 17-year-old made his senior debut for the Candystripes in September 2024 against Drogheda United.
Upon his move to the club, McCourt said: "I'm buzzing to be here. I'm glad that the deal is done and everything is done and dusted and can't wait to get going now.
"As a player, I love dribbling and I love getting on the ball, getting at players. Playing out wide, that's me.
"I made my debut for Derry last year against Drogheda. It was a surreal experience, it's my hometown team and it was a dream to make my debut.
"I cannot wait to get started. I've actually been injured for the last month or two, so getting back and playing again is going to be great. I can't wait.
"I want to play as many minutes as possible. I want to fit in well, it's obviously going to be hard moving away from home. This season, I want to play as much as I can and try my best."
