Johnny Kenny, born on the 6th of June 2003 and now 21 years of age, hails from the Republic of Ireland. Employed primarily in the forward's position as a striker, Kenny currently plays for Shamrock Rovers. Kenny is not the tallest on the pitch standing at 5ft 9in (1.77m) and weighs in at 11st 2lb (71kg).
2020 saw Kenny joining Sligo Rovers in the Premier Division in the Republic of Ireland during the January transfer window. His debut season in 2021 was impressive, as evidenced by his tally of 32 first team appearances and 11 goals in league matches.
A significant advancement in Kenny's career took place in January 2022 when he was transferred to Celtic in the Scottish Premiership. With a transfer fee around the tune of £140k, Kenny's move to the renowned Scottish club marked another step up in his career. However, his tenure at Celtic was short.
By August 2022, Kenny was transferred on loan to Queen's Park in the Scottish Championship. In the 2022-2023 season with Queen's Park, Kenny managed 12 first team appearances in league matches. A semblance of frustration, perhaps, for a striker accustomed to frequent appearances on the roster during his periods with Sligo Rovers.
In January 2023, yet another loan transfer saw Kenny move from Celtic to Shamrock Rovers in the Premier Division in the Republic of Ireland. Kenny had a considerable number of appearances in the 2023 season with Shamrock Rovers, making 30 first team appearances and scoring five goals in league matches. In the current season 2024, Kenny's form appears to have improved significantly, with 26 first team appearances and an impressive haul of 12 goals to his name in league matches.
His record for Shamrock Rovers stretches beyond just league matches. He also appeared in the Champions League Qualifiers 2024 - 2025, scoring two goals in two starts and made one appearance as a substitute. In the FAI Cup 2024, Kenny had one appearance as a substitute. Moreover, in the Conference League 2024 - 2025, he had one start for Shamrock Rovers.
