BORO TURN UP THE HEAT
NUNEATON TOWN boss Tommy Wright couldn’t be happier to have signed Niall Heaton from Alfreton – he’s been trying all summer.
The 20-year-old began his career with Bradford City before landing a move to Liverpool. After a return to the Bantams, the centre back, who can also play left-back, joined Alfreton in 2015, but now makes the switch to their National League North rivals.
Wright said: “We’ve had to beat off competition e to secure his services. We’ ve been in talks all summer and I am delighted to finally get my man. He’s been immense for Alfreton.”
