Defender makes loan move.

Leeds United defender Paudie O’Connor has joined Sky Bet League One side Blackpool on a season-long loan deal.

The 20-year-old joined Leeds from Limerick in 2017 and was made captain of the Under-23s upon his arrival. 

His performances for Carlos Corberan’s side earned him a senior debut against Sunderland back in April and he went on to make three further Sky Bet Championship appearances during the back end of 2017/18 campaign.

O’Connor, who recently signed a new two year contract with the club, will now continue his development at Bloomfield Road where he will look to gain further first team experience.
