Bohemian FC is delighted to announce the signing of French striker Lys Mousset.
The Frenchman, 28, brings a wealth of experience with him to Dalymount Park having starred for Bournemouth and Sheffield United in the Premier League having made his breakthrough in France with Le Havre.
Welcoming Mousset to Dalymount Park, manager Alan Reynolds said:
“I am over the moon to bring in a player of Lys’ quality to the club. He has been in with us the past few weeks and we have really liked what we have seen and he has really settled in well.
“The level Lys has played at speaks for itself. He is an exceptional talent and he wants to come here, enjoy his football and score goals.
“I know that Bohs fans will take to him. There has been a lot of excitement from our fans since news broke that Lys was training with us but they will know too that we will have to be patient with him.
“He hasn’t played for a period of time, so it will take him time to get him up to the level we want him to get to fitness-wise.
“But he has a natural level of real star quality that will excite supporters and be a massive threat for us up front.”
Mousset is the seventh new arrival of the closed season so far, following yesterday’s signings of Connor Parsons and Alex Lacey, the previous additions of Colm Whelan, Niall Morahan and John Mountney, and loan signing of Kian Best.
The former France U21 international said: “It feels very good to sign, I am happy to be here.
“The manager called me, I had a good feeling after speaking with him. He told me to come here and enjoy it, and that is why I have signed.
“I am very happy here. The people at this club are very welcoming, and they have made me feel good.
“I am very excited to get started, to get back playing football and to do my very best for this club. I think we will enjoy this year.”
