Athlone Town sign former Bohemians midfielder Jamie Hamilton

Athlone Town have confirmed the signing of midfielder Jamie Hamilton from AUL side Usher Celtic.

The former Bohemians and Shamrock Rovers underage player made his debut as a substitute in Friday night’s 1-1 draw with Galway United.

Dublin-born Hamilton played his youth football with St Kevin’s Boys and Belvedere before joining Shamrock Rovers’ underage set-up in 2015.

He moved to Bohemians under-19s for the 2017, helping them win back-to-back league titles and the Enda McGuill Cup.

The attacking midfielder made 11 appearances for the senior team, scoring his first goal in a 3-1 victory over Finn Harps on the final day of the 2017 season.
