Club career
editMullins was a product of St Kevin’s Boys before playing for Bohemians U19s. He signed for the Bohemians first-team in 2021.[3] Mullins scored on his debut for Bohemians FC against Longford Town FC in July 2021, aged just 16 years-old, making him the youngest ever goalscorer for the club in the League of Ireland.[4][5] He also made his UEFA Conference League debut for the club against Stjarnan at the Aviva Stadium in July 2021.[6][7]
Mullins signed for the youth academy of Brighton & Hove Albion from Bohemians in January 2023 for an undisclosed fee, signing a two-and-a-half-year contract, until 2025.[8] The first-team pathway granted to Evan Ferguson, who also made the switch from Bohemians to Brighton, was said to be a factor in the decision to move.[9]
International career
editA former Republic of Ireland U16 international, Mullins received his first call up to the Republic of Ireland U21 squad in November 2024, for their two friendlies against Sweden U21 in Marbella, Spain.[10] He made his debut in a 2–0 defeat to Sweden on 14 November 2024.[11]
