David Harrington (born 1 July 2000) is an Irish professional footballer who plays for Fleetwood Town, as a goalkeeper.[1]
Early and personal life[edit]
Harrington's father is former footballer Phil Harrington.[2]
Club career[edit]
Harrington began his career at Cobh Ramblers, moving to Cork City in January 2018.[2] In August and September 2022 he was linked with a transfer to English club Everton.[3][4][5] His proposed move to Everton was cancelled due to a shoulder injury, and in December 2022 he instead signed a pre-contract with English club Fleetwood Town.[6]
In January 2023 he transferred to Fleetwood Town for an undisclosed fee.[7][8][9][10][11] Harrington cited the chance to work with Fleetwood manager Scott Brown as an influence on his decision to sign for the club,[12] and later said that the time either side of the transfer had been "crazy".[13]
International career[edit]
He was called up to the Ireland under-21 team in May 2022.[2]
