RORY GAFFNEY JOINS SALFORD CITY

Salford City FC are delighted to announce the signing of striker Rory Gaffney from League One side Bristol Rovers.

CAREER SO FAR

Born in Tuam, Ireland Rory Gaffney started his career with Mervue United and Limerick City. After 7 years in the League of Ireland he moved to League Two outfit Cambridge United in November 2014. Rory scored twice on his first start for the U’s but injury blighted his first season in the English game. Following a spell on loan he signed permanenty for Bristol Rovers early in 2016. A regular for Rovers during their first season back in League One he had less game time during 2017-2018 yet still managed to notch 5 goals in 10 appearances.

MOVING TO SALFORD CITY

The Ammies have agreed an undisclosed fee for Rory’s services and he joins us on a 3-year deal. A powerful, mobile front-man, his experience will be invaluable as Salford City embark upon their first season at National League level.

We’d like to take this opportunity to welcome Rory to Salford and trust his time with us will be happy and successful.
