Conor McMenamin joins Glentoran after brief stint with Coleraine

Coleraine manager Ruaidhri Higgins confirmed that the departure of Northern Ireland winger Conor McMenamin to Glentoran was the correct decision for all parties involved. McMenamin, who signed with Coleraine in June, left the club after 10 weeks due to difficulties with his daily commute from Downpatrick. As part of the transfer agreement, midfielder Joe Thomson moved to the Showgrounds to bolster the Coleraine midfield. Additionally, Coleraine secured former Crusaders striker Adam Brooks, whom Higgins described as a talented addition to his front line. Coleraine remains unbeaten through four league matches this season as they pursue their first Irish Premiership title since 1974. The team prepares to face Crusaders this Saturday at 18:00 BST.
