The 20-year-old came through the youth set-up at AFC Fylde and Blackpool, with loan spells at Bamber Bridge, Clitheroe and Curzon Ashton.
He signed for North West Counties
League Premier Division outfit Longridge Town in September 2020, scoring twice
for the Lancashire side as they knocked Stalybridge Celtic out of last season’s
Emirates FA Cup at Bower Fold.
Manager Neil Young told https://marinefc.com: “Owen is a player we
identified when he played against us on loan for Clitheroe around 18 months
ago.
“We looked at signing him last season,
but it didn’t materialise, I’m now really pleased that we have managed to do it
for the new season.
He completely fits our recruitment
profile – strong for his age and wants to run in behind, I believe with
confidence and natural development he will be a big plus for us”.
