Welcome, Chris!
“He and the other lads in the development group only need to look at the progress made by Anis Mehmeti over the past few months to know that this can be a great club for young players to learn the trade, by training alongside some fantastic experienced professionals and some of the best coaches in the league.”
Wanderers’ B Team coach Sam Grace, said: “It’s been brilliant to see our young lads come on leaps and bounds in the first year of this development group, with Anis getting plenty of first-team action, Andre Burley representing his country and he, Malachi Linton and Curtis Anderson getting minutes under their belt on loan at various clubs.

“Chris is a great addition to that group.
"He’s a really commanding defender, strong in the air and with a strong determination to succeed, and that attitude will see him fit right in.”
