Ryan Higgins to make Chester FC switch

Chester FC are close to completing the signing of AFC Telford United defender Ryan Higgins.

AFC Telford United's bid to remain in the Conference Premier appears to have taken another hit with the news that defender Ryan Higgins is closing in on a move to Chester FC.

Earlier this year, Higgins was released by Birmingham City but soon agreed non-contract terms with AFC Telford, who were looking to bolster their squad after promotion from the Conference North last season.

However, the Shropshire side have endured a dismal run, recording just 16 points from 27 games, but Higgins's performances have impressed Chester, who currently occupy 17th place.

The 20-year-old is yet to officially complete a transfer to the North-West, but after withdrawing from Telford's squad to play Nuneaton Town on New Year's Day, completion of the switch appears to be a formality.
