Evan McLaughlin, born 30th March 2002, hails from Northern Ireland. This 23-year-old lad runs the show as a central midfielder for Cork City. Standing at 5ft 8in (1.73m) and weighing 11st 2lb (71kg), he's no lightweight in his role.
Per Transfermarkt, his present market worth ripples around the £40k mark. His stint with Cork City hangs in the balance with just 6 months remaining, his contract due to expire on 30th November 2025.
The lad's career took flight in the 2021 season at Derry City, Republic of Ireland, where he had 14 outings with the first team and managed to tuck a goal under his belt. The following season still with Derry City, saw McLaughlin bolstering the midfield in 12 matches.
A move back to his home nation in the 2022 - 2023 season saw McLaughlin lend his services to Coleraine. It was a successful spell marked by 20 first team appearances and three goals finding their way to the back of the net.
McLaughlin's journey took him back to Derry City in 2023 where he featured three times for the first team.
While his journey may lack the lustre and glamour associated with football's upper echelons, McLaughlin remains committed to his craft, a ship navigating the choppy waters of lower league football.
