O'Hanlon and Pritchard join Celtic on loan | OneFootball

Tara O'Hanlon and Poppy Pritchard have joined Celtic on loan until the end of the season, subject to international clearance.

The pair will both head to the Scottish Women’s Premier League side after being recalled from spells at Sunderland and Durham respectively.

Full-back O’Hanlon moved to City from Peamount United in her native Republic of Ireland during the January 2024 transfer window.

She’d played a key role in their march to the League of Ireland title in 2023, going on to make her senior debut for the Irish national team later that year against the United States.

Injuries have meant that O’Hanlon, now 20, is yet to make a competitive appearance for the Blues, but she’ll now seek regular football in Scotland.

Striker Pritchard, also 20, joined the Club from Durham on transfer deadline day in January 2024 having impressed against the Blues in an FA Cup tie earlier that month.

She’s since had loan spells at Crystal Palace, Newcastle and back at Durham, but will this time head north of the border.

Celtic currently sit third in the SWPL with 34 points from 15 matches.

Everyone at City wishes the pair well for the remainder of the 2025/26 season.
