Ryan McBride (born 15 December 1989 in Derry, Northern Ireland) is a defender who currently plays for Derry City in the League of Ireland.
Career
After stints with Brandywell Harps in the Derry and District League, Institue and a trial with Gretna, McBride broke into the Derry side during the 2011 season. He made his debut for the senior squad against Drogheda on the first day of July 2011.[1] Later that month he was called up to the League of Ireland XI side to take part in the 2011 Dublin Super Cup.[1]
When his two-year contract came to an end in 2013, he was offered a renewed contract by new Derry City manager Roddy Collins.[2]
During the 2014 season he was nominated as the League of Ireland, player of the week, after scoring two goals against Sligo Rovers to help gain a draw for Derry.[3]
In September 2014 he scored in the 2014 FAI Cup quarter-final against Drogheda.[4]
During the 2015 season he became the team captain.[5] Former Derry City skipper, Barry Molloy was quoted in the Derry Journal saying:

I think giving the armband to Ryan McBride was a great decision. He wouldn’t be the most vocal player but he’s a leader in terms of how he plays and how he conducts himself in training.
In late 2015 multiple websites reported him as the "toughest man in football", after an unusual tackle, that saw him tackle two Cork players at the same time, ended up on YouTube.[6]
In September 2015, he again scored in the FAI Cup quarter-final, scoring a header against Cork.[7]
In November 2015, McBride become one of the first players to be re-signed by Kenny Shiels for the 2016 season.[8] Speaking to the Derry Journal, manager Kenny Shiels talked about McBride saying:[9]

Ryan’s a player we feel is not only the captain of the team but is influential and leads by example and we’re really pleased to have him on board for next season.
