The Longford native won a 2022 All-Ireland intermediate club title with her team, Longford Slashers in 2022 and previously worked as lead performance nutritionist with Munster Rugby in their 2022/2023 season.

The statement from Liverpool Football Club reads:

"Her role oversees nutrition strategies at the club to support the players' health, performance and recovery around training and matches.

Additionally, Clare will work with members of the squad on a one-on-one basis to individualise their training and game-day fuelling, recovery and supplement routines according to their specific positional demands and/or goals.

Part of this sees the nutrition team work closely with the club chefs to ensure the daily menu offerings are in alignment with the team's performance nutrition requirements.

Prior to joining Liverpool, Clare earned a Bachelor of Science degree at University College Dublin, before going on to obtain a master's degree in sport and exercise nutrition at Loughborough University.

She has a wide background of work in professional sport, including triathlon, West Ham United Women, and intercounty Gaelic football and hurling teams.

More recently, she held the position of lead performance nutritionist in rugby union with Munster Rugby men's team and was part of a successful 2023 season, which yielded a URC Final win in South Africa."
