Armagh forward Campbell signs for Lurgan Celtic

Stefan Campbell has been a significant figure in Kieran McGeeney's Armagh squad

Armagh gaelic footballer Stefan Campbell has agreed to sign up for a fourth spell with Mid-Ulster Football League side Lurgan Celtic.

The Orchard county forward will play for the Hoops during the 2025-26 season, having previously enjoyed three periods as part of the first team squad after coming through the club's youth system.

Campbell last turned out for the club in 2018.

He missed Armagh's All-Ireland quarter-final defeat by Kerry at Croke Park last weekend because of a hand injury.

His impact from the bench has been a key part of the success enjoyed by Kieran McGeeney's 2024 All-Ireland champions in recent seasons.

Lurgan Celtic manager Niall Lavery expressed delight at the addition of Campbell.

"What a player. I played alongside Soup [Campbell] for long enough to see what he can do. A leader in any changing room," said Lavery.

"He'll add pace, power, goals and all-round quality to the team.

"It's a brilliant addition that drives the professionalism up considerably. Can't wait to see Stefan back and scoring goals."

Last month it was announced that Tyrone All-Ireland winning forward Cathal McShane had signed for Premier Intermediate side Strabane Athletic.
