Injuries in defence have prompted Oran Kearney to act.

Ballymena United has announced that Len O'Sullivan has joined the club on a short term deal.

The former Glenavon left-back has been brought in to provide support with both Matthew Clarke and Micheál Glynn dealing with injury issues.

"It's well documented we've had issues with injuries in the left back position and with Shane McEleney moving on, it freed up the space to bring in Len,” explained Braid boss Oran Kearney.

“He knows the league and had a good stint in Scotland. He's keen to get going and importantly, he's ready to go straight away."

“He's been training with Cork City but I remember from his time at Glenavon that he's a fit and energetic lad and he's ready made to come straight in."

The Irishman began his career in his home country, including spells at Wexford and Bray Wanderers, but following a period of time training with Crystal Palace, he joined Glenavon in 2024.

O'Sullivan enjoyed an impressive 18 months at Mourneview Park, leading to a move to Ross County and he went on to make 34 appearances for the Dingwall outfit.

Len will wear the number 25 shirt and will be available for selection for Saturday's game with Crusaders at the Showgrounds.
