Johnny Kenny, a native of Rep. Ireland, was born on the 6th June 2003. Now aged 21, he's a striker with a knack for sniffing out goals. He presently leads the line for Shamrock Rovers, standing 5ft 9in tall and tipping the scales at 11st 2lb.
As of 2024, he's put a shift in over 20 Premier Division matches for the Rovers, and managed a respectable tally of ten goals. He's also had a run in the Champ League Qualifiers, where he added a couple of goals to his record.
The Irish lad started his professional career with Sligo Rovers in early 2020. Two years on, Celtic shelled out around £140k to bring him over to the Scottish Premiership. He didn't long stay at Celtic park though, moving to Queen's Park on loan later in 2022.
In his freshman year at Sligo Rovers he managed to turn heads by hitting the back of the net 11 times in 32 outings. He then had a less fruitful stint at Queen's Park, where he only enjoyed 12 outings for the team in season 2022-2023.
Yet, upon transferring to Shamrock Rovers on loan from Celtic in January 2023, he found his feet again. He turned out 30 times for them in season 2023 and notched up five goals. As of season 2024, he's staying put at Shamrock Rovers.
Even though his spell under the hoops was brief, Kenny's time at Celtic was a stepping stone in his career. However, he wasn't given enough time to truly make his mark.
