Career

Born in Warrington, [4] Mullarkey began his career in the academy at Crewe Alexandra. After a period with Everton, Mullarkey returned to Crewe in 2013. [5] In March 2015, Mullarkey moved on loan to Leek Town. [6] After leaving Crewe without playing a first team match, he played non-league football for Nantwich Town and, from May 2019, for Altrincham, [7] [8] [1] before signing for Rochdale in January 2023, [9] [10] and making his league debut in a 2–1 defeat at Salford City on 4 February 2023. [11]

Following relegation to the National League with Rochdale at the end of the 2022–23 season, Mullarkey signed for Grimsby Town after they triggered a release clause in his contract for an undisclosed fee ahead of the 2023–24 campaign. [12] [13] He had been linked with a transfer to Grimsby before he signed for Rochdale. [14]

On 9 July 2024, Mullarkey joined newly promoted League One club Crawley Town on a two-year deal for an undisclosed fee. [15] [16]

Style of play

He has been described as a "modern ball playing centre-back". [17] He "primarily plays as a right-sided centre-half, which remains his favoured position, although has also served as a defensive central midfielder and a right-back on other occasions". [14]
