Runcorn Linnets have signed teenage winger Vaughn Green from Pitching In Northern Premier League Premier Division club Bamber Bridge.

Vaughn has made eight appearances for the Lancastrians this season, all off the bench. The last of these came in the victory at Marske United at the start of December.

He also made a single appearance for Bury AFC in the North West Counties League.

The 18-year-old had previously played in the Academies at Blackburn Rovers and Preston North End.

He was released by PNE in May 2022 after two seasons in their Under 18s.

Linnets boss Dave Wild said: "We're delighted to add Vaughn to the group.

"We have been in real need of pace and direct play for a number of weeks so when the chance for him to come in from Bamber Bridge arose, it was a no brainer!

"Hopefully he will bed in quickly and show everyone what he's capable of as his progression in senior football continues."
