The 27-year-old joined the Blues from Altrincham in January 2020 and made 36 appearances across two disrupted seasons, scoring 3 goals.

 

The skillful and pacey winger had signed for Altrincham in May 2017 from Nantwich Town, and he quickly established himself as a fan favourite.

 

Known for his impressive runs down the wing, he was a key part of the attacking team that won the Northern Premier League in 2017/18, scoring 20 goals in all competitions in his first season.

 

He began his career with Kidsgrove before making the move to neighbours Leek Town where his performances were so impressive that he earned himself a move to Crewe Alexandra, from where he went back on loan to Leek as well as with Alfreton Town and Salford City, before he signed for the Ammies on a permanent basis.

 

He later spent time on loan at Nantwich before making that move more permanent in 2016.
