Signed from Wakey

He was signed from Doncaster at the end of the 2022 season after being nominated for League 1 young player of the year, he came through the Wakefield Academy. Again I feel like this could be a case of the Club letting players go too early without given them a fair chance he's still only 21 and if he fulfill's his potential then we could be looking back on this release in years to come like many other young forwards we've cast off to other SL teams over the years.

I suppose if the player wants guaranteed football and we can`t honour that then it`s his choice.
We have had our fair share of players who didn`t want to stick around as better players were in their way.
If he can get more minutes at clubs such as Wakefield, Cas for instance then who would blame him.
You could look at it as not up for the fight or you could look at it and think the guy`s got ambition.
Time will tell.

Shame,but if we have to get cap space and he wants to be in the 17 then this was a likely outcome.

Frustrated he didn't get more time to impress
