McLoughlin has been capped for Ireland U18’s and was on a two year scholarship at Ipswich after joining the East Anglian club in July 2013. That scholarship was extended for the 2015-16 season.

The highlight for him so far while at the club was helping Ipswich to win a FA Youths Cup last season. Now Shane has a lot more to look forward to
