Under-21s defender Alfie Taylor has joined Northern Premier League East side Cleethorpes Town on loan for the remainder of the 2024/25 season.
The Hull-born centre half first joined his hometown club at Under-9s level, and progressed through the system to sign his first professional contract in May 2022.
Being an unused substitute four times in the Sky Bet Championship in April 2023, the defender has previously on loan twice in his career.
Featuring three times on loan for League of Ireland Premier side St Patrick’s Athletic, the 21-year-old played 19 games this season for Grimsby Borough, winning the club’s Player of the Month award for September.
Cleethorpes Town, who are under the management of Craig Rouse, sit top of the table in the Northern Premier League East after 34 games played, nine points clear of second-placed Emiey AFC with eight league games left.
The defender will be aiming to make his debut on Non-League Day this Saturday when Cleethorpes host Ashington AFC at the Myenergi Stadium, three days before the Owls welcome Scunthorpe United in the Lincolnshire Senior Cup Final.
We would like to wish Alfie the best of luck in his loan spell at Cleethorpes!
