Dawson Devoy is MK Dons' second Irish signing

It's been a busy period for Irish transfers in soccer.

MK Dons have conducted their second raid of the summer for young League of Ireland talent. 

The English League One side have signed Dawson Devoy from Bohemians for an undisclosed fee. 

The Republic of Ireland under-21 midfielder has signed a long-term contract at Stadium MK, where he’ll be a teammate of ex-St. Pat’s winger Darragh Burns. 

Shane Long has re-joined Reading. 

The 35-year old was a free agent following his release by Southampton last month. 

Long originally joined Reading from Cork City in 2005, scoring 54 times in 203 games.

Meanwhile, Newcastle defender Ciaran Clark has joined Sheffield United on loan for the season. 

Yesterday, Nathan Collins became the most expensive Irish player in history after his €24million move from Burnley to Wolverhampton Wanderers
