Stanley ponder deal for ex-Rhyl defender
Thursday 12 August 2010
LEAGUE Two outfit Accington Stanley are considering offering a deal to Glenn Hoddle Academy graduate Andrew Owens, who spent the second half of last season at Rhyl.
The 20-year-old centre back was at the Crown Ground to watch Stanley’s goalless draw with Aldershot Town last Saturday and the Reds are said to be contemplating handing a week-to-week contract to the former Stoke City youth team player.
Stanley are searching for a tall centre back, with their current central pair both under six feet, and 6' 3" Owens is looking to return to the Football League after spending time at Hoddle’s Academy in Spain.
The Liverpudlian also spent parts of last season in the Blue Square Bet North with Stafford Rangers and in the Blue Square Bet Premier with Altrincham, making six (+1) Welsh Premier appearances for the Lilywhites during his time at Belle Vue.
