Falkirk Football Club is delighted to announce the signing of forward Eamonn Brophy on a loan deal from Ross County until the end of the season.
A centre forward, Eamonn was a youth player at Celtic and Hibernian before breaking through at Hamilton Academical after loan spells with Queen’s Park and Dumbarton. He joined Kilmarnock in 2017 and enjoyed an extremely fruitful three and a half years in Ayrshire, scoring 34 goals in 115 appearances, as well as finishing 5th and 3rd in his first two seasons with the club and securing European football for the club.
The 28-year-old joined Ross County from St Mirren in 2023 and has scored eight goals in his 52 games with the Highland side. A former Scotland international whilst at Kilmarnock, Eamonn has made more than 230 appearances in the topflight and brings plenty of additional experience to The Bairns’ forward line.
Eamonn will wear number 25 for Falkirk.
Falkirk Manager John McGlynn said on Eamonn joining Falkirk:
“We are delighted to have signed Eamonn Brophy on loan until the end of the season. I think he will be a player that is well known to the majority of Falkirk fans, he’s played for a number of Scottish clubs after he broke through at Hamilton as a young player, and he’s been playing in the top league for more or less the last ten years or so.
“He comes with loads and loads of experience, with 232 appearances in the Premiership, with a good return in goals. He’s proven at the highest level in the country and he’s certainly coming to Falkirk to help give us that push to get promoted. We’re delighted to have him here, he’s a good type of boy and we’ve done our due diligence to know he will fit into the dressing room, and we look forward to working with him between now and the end of the season.”
