Cillian Sheridan (born 23 February, 1989 in Bailieborough, County Cavan, Ireland) is a footballer who plays for Scottish Premier League club Celtic as a left-sided or central forward.[1][2]
Sheridan previously played for Belvedere F.C. in Dublin and also played Gaelic football for Bailieboro Shamrocks. He was a member of the Cavan minor squad before moving to Celtic in summer 2006. After scoring freely for the Celtic under 19 team, Sheridan was promoted to the Reserve team then the first team squad during his first season at the club, a "spectacular rise" according to coach Joe McBride.[3]
Sheridan made his first team debut for Celtic in the Scottish Cup against Inverness Caledonian Thistle, on 25 February, 2007 and he signed a new three year contract with the club two days later.[4]
