BREAKING | Blues sign goalkeeper Theo Roberts

Chester Football Club are pleased to announce the signing of teenage goalkeeper Theo Roberts.

19-year-old Roberts came through the youth ranks at Wigan Athletic, and made his debut for them in November 2017 in an EFL Trophy game against Accrington Stanley.

Last season Theo also had a loan spell at National League side AFC Fylde.

Joint Manager Anthony Johnson said: “Theo comes with a really impressive background at Wigan Athletic.

“He’s done well in pre-season and is somebody we have very high hopes for in the future.

“To support his development he will be going straight out on loan to gain further experience with a recall clause should he be required here.”

Welcome to Chester FC, Theo!
