Barratt
was a favourite in Maidenhead colours during his previous spell at York Road
between 2014 and 2018.
A
prolific scorer signed from then-Uhlsport Hellenic League football with
Bracknell Town, Barratt made 43 starts in the black and white and was named as
an impact substitute a further 114 times.
He
scored 17 goals across four seasons, the most memorable of which was a last-gasp
header for Maidenhead`s first ever National League goal at Maidstone United
back in August 2017.
The
Berkshire-born youngster also earned England C caps during that inaugural
National League in 2017/18.
Barratt
earned a richly deserved move to EFL League One in the summer of 2018, joining
Southend United but suffered the considerable blow of long-term injury early in
his time as a full time professional.
Coming
back into the Shrimpers team before the Lockdown was imposed and making an
immediate impression, Barratt was released by the Essex club when the curtailed
season ended with Southend relegated to League Two. |
