Teenage defender Oliver Muir to complete permanent switch to the Blues

Teenage defender Oliver Muir is on his way back to the Blues.

Muir enjoyed an impressive spell on loan at Shawbridge around Christmas last season.

And the 19-year-old has now agreed a permanent move to Clitheroe after deciding to leave Lancaster City.

Muir had been offered a new deal by the Dolly Blues – where he made a handful of first-team appearance in the Evo Stik Premier last season.

But he has opted to join former Lancaster boss Phil Brown at Clitheroe as Brown’s new-look squad aims to make their mark in the North/West Division.

Brown said: “Olly has developed well over the last couple of seasons.

“It’s important that he now builds on that development and getting more minutes under his belt is key to that.

“As a left footer he will add balance to the defending unit and increase our defensive options.

“He did well on loan here last season and I’m sure he’ll do well now he’s back permanently. I’m looking forward to working with him again.”

Brown has now lined up seven new signings with another close to completion before the Blues return for the start of pre-season training next Saturday.

Don’t forget, season tickets next season will cost just £50. So, come and ‘Back the Blues’. Full details HERE
