The club have confirmed the signing of 22 year old attacking midfielder/winger Ben Fyles.
Ben is a product of Blackburn Rovers academy, joining the club at the age of 6 and progressing through to the Under 21s side, including being being on the fringes of the first team, forming part of the squad for a 5th round FA Cup tie at Leicester City in 2023.
Ben with Director of Football, Neil Crowe
Following his departure from Rovers, last season Ben joined North West Counties side Nelson, making 22 appearances and scoring 6 goals across all competitions.
On the signing, Brig' Director of Football said:
“Ben is a young lad with bags of ability and plenty of potential. Despite being only 22, he already has good experience from his time at Blackburn Rovers. He’s at a great age to develop further, and we’re delighted to bring him in from our neighbours Nelson who won their league last year. Hopefully he can get his head down, work hard, and really kick on, and be a great addition for us.”
Welcome to the Brig family, Ben.
