We can today confirm the signing of ex-Farsley forward Chinedu Osadebe with the Club.

The striker first ventured into non-league football down South, spending time with Witham Town in Essex, as well as Hertfordshire side Bishop’s Stortford.

On the signing, manager Mark Bower said;

“We’re delighted to get Osadebe signed on with us. He has managed to impress us in pre-season, and with his experience at Banbury in their promotion winning Southern Premier League season, he’ll be a great addition to the team.”

We can today confirm the signing of Midfielder Zak Kersey on a one-year deal with the club, with option for a 2nd. 

Zak joins the First Team after a year as a scholar with the BPA Academy, and made multiple League appearances for the First Team towards the back end of last season whilst on non-contract terms.

During his time with the Academy, he also spent time out on loan with Frickley Athletic, and earned a Man of the Match award on his debut for the club. 

He also appeared in last season’s West Riding County Cup match vs Brighouse Town, scoring the opening goal with a great strike.

On the signing, Danny Boshell said;

“We’re really pleased Zak has signed. He’s a great kid with a fantastic attitude and a willingness to learn.” 

“He’s still young with a lot to learn but he showed in his brief appearances last season that he has the ability and potential to step up.”

We also caught up with Zak in a video interview which you can watch below.
