Michael Noonan, born 31 July 2008 (age 18), is a Republic of Ireland striker whose senior career has been shaped almost entirely at Shamrock Rovers.
He has already made 58 league appearances for Rovers across two seasons, scoring 13 goals. His 2026 campaign has been his most productive so far, with seven league goals in 28 appearances, and he remains a regular part of their first-team picture rather than a prospect being kept at arm’s length.
In 2026, Noonan has also featured in European qualifiers, making three Champions League qualifying appearances and two in Conference League qualifying. Across all competitions for Shamrock Rovers that year, he has 33 appearances and eight goals.
He was linked with Celtic in January 2026, a straightforward transfer line rather than anything more substantial. His market value is around £340,000, according to Transfermarkt.
Noonan’s career to date is a Shamrock Rovers story: early senior football, regular minutes, and a useful scoring return while still a teenager.
