Vincent Borden Re-Signs for 2025

Galway United are delighted to announce that Vincent Borden has re-signed for our Senior Men’s team ahead of the 2025 season.

Tá lúcháir ar Gaillimh Aontaithe a fhógairt go bhfuil Vincent Borden tar éis síniú arís d’fhoireann sinsireach na bhfear roimh an séasúr nua i 2025.

It will be the third season at the club for the 25-year-old since joining for the 2023 season.

The American national made 29 appearances for The Tribesmen last season, starting in 24 of them.

Borden was an important member of a side that conceded only 29 league goals last season (the second-best record in the League of Ireland for 2024) contributing with his impressive defensive numbers such as his 55 aerial duels and his 78% of tackles won.

Borden began his professional career in Croatia in the youth academy of Dinamo Zagreb. A year later, he went to the New York Red Bulls academy and then played with Rutgers University in New Jersey before joining United in January of 2023. He had a successful campaign and was a key part of United’s First Division winning team. Borden’s highlight of the 2024 season will likely be his impressive sliding finish to equalise in a 2-1 victory against Waterford back in March. Check out the highlights of an iconic comeback below:
