Sligo Rovers
Micheál made his League of Ireland debut at Sligo Rovers in 2009. Having first appeared as an unused substitute in the latter stages of the season, he made one league appearance in the second last game of the season, starting between the posts in a 3-1 defeat against Bohemians at Dalymount Park on 30 October, before moving to Athlone Town in 2010.
