Young attacking midfielder Jude Boyd has committed to The Seagulls after being released by Argyle.

The Redruth-based 18-year old joins the Trungle Parc squad just a day after the arrival of fellow Cornish youngster Kian Burns.

Burns, one of the most promising youngsters in Cornish football, chose to head west to Mousehole as The Seagulls continue to attract the talent to match their ambitions both on and off the field.

The 18-year old has put in some eye-catching performances with his strong and direct running for Camelford and was an outstanding performer for them in their home match against Mousehole last winter. 

Since then, Mousehole manager Jake Ash has had Kian on his radar, convinced of his potential to improve under Mousehole’s coaching regime and to make a major contribution to the team’s success as they prepare for the forthcoming season.

In joining Mousehole, Boyd is re-uniting with Ash, who was in charge of the West Cornwall Schools under-14 and under-15 sides in which Boyd played a prominent part.

Boyd (pictured) joined Argyle at the age of 14 after playing youth football for Perranwell and St Day. 

He made his first-team debut against Bristol Rovers last September, after being recommended as an outstanding performer by Academy boss Kevin Hodges.
