Heaton Stannington are delighted to announce that young winger Dan Kemp has joined us on dual registration.
The 18-year-old joins from Stotfold in the Southern League Division One Central, where he was named Players’ Player of the Year last season. Dan joins the Stan having moved up to the North East to begin studying at Newcastle University.
Dan is a high-energy winger who aims to provide attacking threat and desire to get forward and score goals.
Upon moving to the club, Dan Kemp said:
“I’m very excited to join the Stan and get going. I know they’re a promising side with a positive future. I want to come here and make an impact on the team to support them in reaching their targets for this season, but also to continue improving myself under Dean and Andy. I want to help the team win as many games a possible and reach double figures for goals this season.”
Manager Dean Nicholson said:
“Dan comes with a good reputation. Andy has been monitoring him for a while and he’s looking very sharp with us already. He has real quality and he will add a lot to this group. He’s a player I’m sure the Stan Army will be watching on the edge of their seats. Welcome aboard Dan!”
Thank you to Stotfold FC for their assistance with the deal.
Heaton Stannington are delighted to announce the loan signing of winger Dan Savage from South Shields.
The 20-year-old has made two substitute appearances for his parent in National League North already this season, and has previously had temporary spells at Hebburn Town and Blyth Spartans.
In his own words, he’s a “front-footed attacking player with loads of energy” known for his high workrate.
Upon signing for the club, Dan Savage said:
“I’m really excited to get going. There’s a real buzz around the club and the lads, and I’m thrilled to now be involved with that. The project is a very exciting one and I couldn’t let that slip by me. The club has huge ambitions and has a real strong chance of promotion. My role will be to contribute to that target every time I step onto the pitch.”
Manager Dean Nicholson said:
“I’m delighted to get Sav into the club. He’s a player Andy and I have been watching for a long time and we’ve tried a few times to bring him in. His quality, pace and style of play suits us, and his energy is something we are looking forward to seeing. Welcome to the club, Dan!”
