‘I have absolutely loved my time at Cork City FC. I have been at the club for seven years and have learned so much,’ Hurley said.
‘I have been part of some great occasions, and I have gained great experience, on and off the pitch. Being able to combine my studies at UCC with my football was a really brilliant option for me, and it has now opened the door for me to a new opportunity where I can continue to combine football with my education.
‘I leave Cork City with fond memories and am very proud of having represented the club.’
