A much sought after young talent has been on the radar of many clubs in the past few months and City boss Mark Fell says this is a great capture for the club,
“It’s probably the worst kept secret in the league that we have been trying to get this over the line for a few weeks, but I’m made up that Liam has joined us.
"He’s an exceptional young footballer, already has experience of non-league and has a great attitude.

City fans will get their first view of the new man at the Giant Axe when the club face Burnley Under-23s in the Semi-Final of the Lockstep Trophy on Wednesday 21st July, 7-45pm kick-off.
