Largy native Patrick McClafferty has been called up to the Gibraltar senior International football squad.
The former St Catherine’s underage star now lives in Gibraltar and has represented the country’s U-21s in the past.
But senior national team boss Scott Wiseman - a former Hull City and Barnsley star - has drafted in ex-Saint McClafferty ahead of FIFA World Cup European Qualifier fixtures against Montenegro and the Czech Republic later this month.
A message on St Catherine’s facebook page reads: “Best of luck to Patrick McClafferty who originally hails from Largy, Killybegs and has been called into the squad from the U-21 panel.
“Patrick represented St Catherines FC some years back when we entered a team in the Foyle Cup.
“Great to see another young lad making progress in his football career. Best of luck Patrick from The Saints!”
