Elsdon
progressed through the Middlesbrough academy system and earned a full-time deal
in the summer of 2015.
Although
the 22-year-old did not make a first-team appearance for Boro, he regularly
featured in their development squad and in the early part of the 2017/18 season
he made 8 appearances in the Scottish Championship for Inverness Caledonian
Thistle.
He
was released by Boro and Barrow in July 2018. However, he only made 6
appearances in his first season, largely due to injury, and holds the unusual
statistic of his first three appearances for the Bluebirds all coming against
the same opponent - FC Halifax Town.
Elsdon
will be available for the Seasiders’ match against Grantham Town today for what
will be his first competitive game for the season. |
