The
30-year-old put pen-to-paper after his release from SkyBet League Two side
Macclesfield Town in the summer and links up again with manager Steve Watson,
who was previously assistant-manager with the Silkmen.
Durrell
joined Macc in July 2017 having been a mainstay in the Chester FC side in
2016/17, appearing in all 46 league games, 42 of them from the start, and
netting 8 times.
Durrell
arrived at Chester after a successful season with Tamworth that saw him finish
as their top scorer with 13 goals.
Previously
he had spent time Wrexham after bursting on to the non-League scene after a
prolific spell with Hednesford Town.
Over
two seasons Durrell scored 58 goals in 95 games for the Pitmen to establish
himself as one of the hottest properties in non-League football.
He
also caught the eye of the TV cameras and had the chance to showcase his
talents after being selected for Leicester City and England striker Jamie
Vardy’s V9 Academy, aimed at providing more opportunities for non-league
footballers.
Durrell
made 55 appearances for Macclesfield over his two seasons with the Silkmen and
was notably named in the National League ‘team of the year’ for 2017/18 after
winning promotion back to the Football League with the Cheshire-based outfit.
Injury
hampered his time in League Two last term, but Durrell still managed to find
the back of the net 4 times in 18 games from midfield. |
