Young defender Ryan Graham, left-back Liam Brockbank and goalkeeper Matt Alexander have all put pen-to-paper for the Dolly Blues for 2021/22.

Graham (pictured) is an 18-year-old who joins City having left SkyBet League One side Accrington Stanley in the summer where he spent ten years in the academy.

A left-sided centre-half who can also play as a left-back, he has impressed the City management during his spell at the club during pre-season and did enough to earn himself a deal for the 2021/22 season.

Brockbank is a 20-year-old England Futsal international who signed for NPL Division One West side Workington AFC in May 2019 after being released by League Two neighbours Carlisle United.

The Millom-based defender was released after starring in their Cumberland Cup final success over Penrith.

Alexander is joining City from League Two Bolton Wanderers on a season-long loan.

The young keeper played for Lancaster against Longridge Town at the weekend.

Alexander has two senior appearances under his belt for Bolton and kept a clean sheet against Coventry City on his full debut in August 2019.

He then featured in a 1-1 draw against Bradford City which was decided on penalties the following month in the EFL Trophy.

Last season the 19-year-old again worked regularly with the first team but had fewer appearances on the bench.
