Ciaran McCarthy

I am a journalist and news writer, covering Premier League and worldwide transfer news, as well as writing features.

I corroborate any news with a team of transfer correspondents to ensure maximum accuracy, and bounce feature ideas off of other writers, to ensure the best experience for the reader.

I began as a freelancer at Planet Sport in 2021 – not long after graduating from Leeds Trinity University – on my first of three football sites, TEAMtalk. I then also joined the Football365 team a couple of years later, and added Planet Football to my remit in early 2025.
