Dundalk manager Stephen Kenny says Richie Towell is 'ready' to make the break-through at Championship leaders Brighton.
The 24 year old won two league titles in a row and the FAI Cup with Stephen Kenny's team before signing a 2 and a half year contract at Brighton this week.
Towell has been one of the best players in the League of Ireland for the last three seasons.
His former manager was on 'Now That's What I Call Sport with Jamie Moore' this morning, and says Towell is ready for action.
Stephen also told Jamie how they plan to replace him and try to make the group stages of the Europa League.
