Annagh United Duo Joins Glenavon on Loan
Annagh United's Jude Johnson and Lorcan Donnelly have joined Glenavon on loan, a move that Glentoran manager Declan Devine believes will help the players progress. The duo has been in high demand, and this loan move is seen as a great opportunity for them to develop their skills.
Why it Matters for Annagh United
The loan move is a testament to the hard work and dedication of the two players. Jude Johnson, who spent last season with Annagh United, has made excellent progress and is now ready for another challenge. Lorcan Donnelly, who has previously enjoyed time at Lisburn Distillery, Newry City, Ballinamallard United, and Carrick Rangers, is a talented young goalkeeper who is still only 20.
What Comes Next?
The loan move is expected to benefit both players, who will now have the opportunity to play regularly in the Championship. Glenavon is a club that is expected to compete at the top end of the league, and the duo will face stiff competition every week. However, Devine believes that this is the right move for the players, and that they will continue to improve with regular playing time.
Recent form (last 5): 2W-0D-3L (WWLLL, most recent first); on a 2-game winning run. Last result: Crusaders FC 1-2 Annagh United (2026-05-01).
