Despite being born and raised in South London, Danny is now well and truly part of furniture at Cork City, as well as being a self-proclaimed supporter of the club.

A tenacious left-back, the ‘Cockney Rebel’ is currently in his third spell on Leeside, having originally ventured across the Irish Sea in 2004.

Widely regarded as one of the most accomplished defenders in the league, Murphy returned to the club in 2011 and played a vital part in the club’s return to the Premier Division.
