Blackpool sign Jarrett Rivers from Blyth Spartans

Blyth Spartans FA Cup hero Jarrett Rivers joins Blackpool on a one-year deal for an undisclosed fee.

Blackpool have signed Blyth Spartans winger Jarrett Rivers for an undisclosed fee in their first piece of business since being relegated to League One.

The 21-year-old shot to fame earlier this year when he scored a late winner to knock Hartlepool United out of the FA Cup at the second-round stage.

Rivers had a trial at Oldham Athletic in January, although a move failed to materialise during the winter transfer window.

However, Blackpool have taken a chance on the youngster by handing him a one-year deal, with an option of a further year should both parties agree.
