Steelmen strengthen strikeforce as teenager Neo Dobson joins from Northampton Town
Corby Town have strengthened their forward line with the signing of Northampton Town teenager Neo Dobson.
The 17-year-old arrives at Steel Park form Sixfields on a work experience basis.
The frontman has previously been on work experience at Banbury United in the Pitching-In Southern League Premier Central this season, but that arrangement has been ended and he now switches to play for the Steel Park club.
Dobson will go straight in Gary Setchell’s squad for their Northern Premier League Midlands Division trip to Bedworth United on Saturday, with Corby still without the services of injured front pair Jordan O’Brien and Reuben Marshall.
A Corby Town statement read: “We are pleased to announce that attacker Neo Dobson will be joining the club on a one month work experience loan deal from neighbours Northampton Town.
“We would like to thank Northampton Town for their assistance with this deal.”
Dobson, who also spent time on loan at Kettering Town last season, is highly rated at the Cobblers, and was a second-half substitute in their 2-0 EFL Trophy win at Notts County on Tuesday night.
