The 22-year-old is no stranger to the National League, having only joined Blackburn from Gateshead in July.

He almost had his career cut short before it had barely got going when he suffered a career-threatening injury whilst playing for Gateshead under-19s, side-lining the youngster for over a year.

However, he recovered to become one of the most influential midfielders in the National League and feature for England C.

He spent time out on loan at Spennymoor Town, West Auckland Town, Ashington and Scarborough Athletic but the 2018/19 season was a breakthrough one for him as he made 44 appearances for the Tynesiders.

He had been linked with moves to Hartlepool United and Carlisle United, but Rovers were first to sort a deal to take him to Ewood Park.
