Barry Coffey, born on 27 March 2001 (age 25), is an Irish attacking midfielder who began his career in Celtic’s system before moving on to build his senior career elsewhere.
He came through at Celtic as a trainee, but did not become a first-team figure. In July 2022 he left the club for Cork City, a sensible enough move for a player needing regular football rather than another year on the fringes.
Coffey’s Celtic connection is mainly an early-career one: a young player developed at Lennoxtown, then moved back into Irish football with Cork City. His career since has been shaped away from Glasgow.
