Biography
Irish defender McLoughlin joined City in July 2019, adding power to Grant McCann’s rebuilt squad, and was immediately loaned to St Mirren for the first half of the season to gain first team experience. He returned to City in January 2020 and saw his first action when he started at centre back at Reading in early February. He made a number of appearances filling in across the defence and started the 2020/21 League One campaign as part of City’s first team squad. Although used in a support role during the 2020/21 season, he was awarded a new contract in March 2021.
McLoughlin was born in Cork and came through the ranks at his local side, rejoining in 2017 and compiling over 60 senior appearances after a spell in the Irish non-leagues while he studied for a degree. He played alongside Damien Delaney while gaining both European and domestic experience.
