Workington Reds have signed an exciting young forward from Bolton Wanderers on loan for an initial three months.
Yestin Shakespear will be with Reds this afternoon at Ashton where they will be trying to build on Tuesday’s 2-0 win over Prescot Cables.
The 20-year-old has scored goals at every age group in his time with Bolton including 30 with the Under-16s and a hat-trick for the Under-19s when stepped up.
Shakespear is likely to take the place of skipper Dav Symington, who is unavailable for the tripn to Ashton.
The Bolton youngster is said to enjoy the physical side of the game and the time is said to be right for his first loan move and the chance to sample senior football at non-league level.
Cumbria Crack’s John Walsh asked Reds boss Mark Fell how the young striker had come onto his radar. You can hear his response below:
