Biography:
Roy Carroll agreed his release from Odense in January 2011 in an attempt to secure a move back to the UK. After several trials over a six month period he joined Greek Super League side, OFI Crete. His performances for Crete earned him a mid-season move to Greek giants, Olympiacos. He made his début in dramatic circumstances, coming off the bench to save a penalty in a 1-0 win Europa League win over Rubin Kazan.

After a near-six year absence from the international scene, Carroll was recalled by Michael O'Neill.
