Stafford Rangers goalkeeper Luke Pilling pens permanent deal with AFC Telford United

AFC Telford United have signed Stafford Rangers goalkeeper Luke Pilling on a permanent deal - with Jed Abbey heading the other way as part of the deal.

Pilling, who has been capped at Wales Under 20 level, began his career with Tranmere Rovers before leaving the club and signing for Notts County.

He joined Rangers last summer - but has now been picked up by Paul Carden's Bucks who are hoping Pilling can provide stern competition for current number one Russ Griffiths.

The 24-year-old has penned a permanent deal at the club - and as part of the move former Wolves youngster Abbey will go in the other direction on loan until the end of the season.
