HUGHES JOINS LEICESTER

Defender Sam Hughes has made a dream move to Premier League side Leicester City for an undisclosed fee, (reported in the Non-League Paper to be around £130,000). Hughes, a product of the club’s youth policy, signed a professional contract in July 2015 and broke through into the first team in 2016/17 making 49+15 appearances for the club, scoring eight goals during the last two seasons. He also captaining the side in the final matches.

Chief Executive Mark Maguire said: “The club was reformed in 2010 and subsequently took the decision to establish an academy. Just seven years later, due to the hard work of people like Calum McIntyre and his staff, the likes of Brian Burns and Mike Day and the support of people like Ian Swettenham, the academy has produced a player who has thrived under the management of Jon McCarthy and proved good enough to be transferred to the 2015/16 Premier League champions.”
