Academy Sign Grant Campbell
Wick Academy are delighted to confirm Huntly FC Captain Grant Campbell will be wearing the
Black & White of Wick Academy FC from next season after agreeing to re-join
his home town club after submitting a transfer request.
The
Club approached Huntly FC to table an interest after discussing the approach
with the 1st Team Manager Gordon Connelly and as a result permission
was granted by Huntly Chairman George Clark too speak to Grant.
It
was down to Grant's eagerness to return home to Wick Academy FC that made this
transfer possible and as a result personal terms were quickly agreed.
We
as a club are absolutely delighted to be able to acquire such a talented and versatile
player of undoubted quality with vast experience who can only enhance and
improve the current squad.
We would like to thank Huntly FC Chairman George
Clark and Secretary Alix Turner for the very professional manner in which they
dealt with this transfer thus enabling it all to happen very quickly.
Huntly Chairman George Clark commented "Naturally
we are disappointed to lose a player of Grant's calibre. During his 132
appearances for Huntly his desire and commitment for the club was always
exemplary. However, we fully understand his desire to play for his local club
once again, and wish him well for the future ".
