Huddersfield footballer Ross Killock has signed for Chester FC in the Vanarama Conference.
The 21-year-old defender – released by Leeds United at the end of last season – put pen to paper on a one-year contract at the Lookers Vauxhall Stadium, where he will work under boss Jon McCarthy.
Killock is the brother of former Huddersfield Town player Shane, who is currently with Harrogate Town, and the family live in the Holme Valley.
A junior with Hepworth United and Upperthong, left-back Killock said: “I’m absolutely delighted to have signed at Chester and I’m looking forward to the season.
“As soon as Macca rang me, I knew I wanted to sign right away.
“My time here was probably my best in football, so it’s great to be back.”
Killock spent a season on loan at Chester in 2013-14 and also had loans at Alfreton and FC Halifax Town during his time at Elland Road.
A cricketer with Scholes in the Drakes Huddersfield League, Killock is McCarthy’s third signing of the summer following defender Blaine Hudson and midfielder Elliott Durrell.
