Adam Patrick McDonnell (born 14 May 1997) is an Irish professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for National League side Boreham Wood
Playing career
Ipswich Town
McDonnell signed with Ipswich Town from Shelbourne in August 2014, having previously had trials at Manchester United and Bolton Wanderers.[2] However, he was unable to feature for the "Tractorboys" until his 18th birthday due to FIFA regulations, much to manager Mick McCarthy's annoyance.[3] He made his debut on 25 August 2015, in a 4–1 League Cup victory over Doncaster Rovers at the Keepmoat Stadium.[4]
Aldershot Town (loan)
On August 30, McDonnell was loaned out to Vanarama National League side Aldershot Town where he made 14 appearances and scored 4 goals. McDonnell was recalled from loan in December 2017 due to injury problems at Ipswich Town. He featured on the bench in an EFL Championship game against Wolverhampton Wanderers which Ipswich Town went on to lose 1-0 at the Molineux Stadium.[5]
Return to Aldershot Town
On 26 January 2018, following his release from Ipswich, McDonnell returned to Aldershot Town on a one-and-half-year deal.[6]
Boreham Wood
On 1 July 2019, McDonnell signed for fellow National League side Boreham Wood, signing a two-year deal.[7]
