The 29-year-old's arrival at Bohemians in February caused a stir and fans quickly embraced the quirky nature of the signing, dubbing the striker 'The Moose'. But Mousset continued to struggle for fitness at Bohs and made just nine appearances for Alan Reynold's men, starting three times. He only scored one goal, but it was a valuable strike as it secured a 1-0 win for Bohemians away to Sligo Rovers in May. The writing was on the wall for Mousset this week when Bohemians signed former Drogheda United loanee striker Douglas James-Taylor from Walsall. In a statement, the Gypsies said: 'Bohemian FC can today confirm the departure of Lys Mousset by mutual consent.

Ex-Premier League striker Lys Mousset departs Bohemians
Bohemians have confirmed that striker Lys Mousset has departed the club "by mutual consent". The former Bournemouth and Sheffield United striker joined the club earlier this year following a successful trial, but with only one goal to his name, the 28-year-old has headed for the exit door. Mousset starred for both the Cherries and the Blades in the Premier League and made 90 English top-tier appearances after initially making his breakthrough in France with Le Havre. The former France under-21 international has flattered to deceive since leaving the Premier League in 2022 and spent a year out of football prior to his stint at Bohs, where he struggled for form in front of goal. A Bohs statement read: "Bohemian FC can today confirm the departure of Lys Mousset by mutual consent. "We thank Lys for his efforts at the club over the past six months and wish him all the very best for the future." Alan Reynold's second-placed Bohs have brought in former Drogheda United loanee, Douglas James-Taylor, from Walsall, while they are also pondering a bid for the services of Galway United midfielder Patrick Hickey.
