The Nomads are delighted to announce the signing of 23 year old Nick Rushton.

Rushton, the brother of former Nomads goalkeeper, John, joins the Deeside club on a two year deal.  Nick came up through the youth ranks at Wrexham, before being loaned to Airbus UK, and Newtown, so brings strong Welsh Premier League experience with him.

Nick experienced first team football at Wrexham in the 2012-13 season before joining Barrow on loan in September 2013.  His spell at Holker Street was very successful, scoring ten goals in his loan spell, getting his loan spell extended and finishing the season as Barrow’s top scorer with 16 goals.

This performance convinced Wrexham to offer Rushton a new one year contract extension, however found himself out of favour with Kevin Wilkin, and found himself loaned to Hednesford Town for the remainder of the 2014-15 season.

On Rushton’s arrival, Manager Allan Bickerstaff said “Nick has been brought in to the club to score goals.  He has a good record at each club that he has played for and I look forward to working with him.”
