“Eamon has been on our radar for the last twelve months,” he said.
“We were always gauging when would be the right time to bring him in and we believe that it’s now.
“He has had a cracking spell at Dundela and is their top goalscorer so far this season, which is no mean feat at that level.
“There were four or five other clubs chasing his signature but we are pleased that he sees his future here and he has a lot of qualities and potential that we are excited about.”
“He is quick and powerful and played with Matthew Shevlin at the Milk Cup so I’m sure he will be a valuable addition to the squad.”
The 24-year-old has signed a two-and-a-half year deal with Coleraine and will wear the number 13 shirt.
