Harrad leaves Notts County

One Notts County player won't be seen at Edgar Street when Hereford United entertain the East Midlands club for a friendly as he was released this afternoon.

Shaun Harrad, 20, had a year remaining on his contract but with opportunities limited and the player eager to be playing first team football at this stage of his career, it was mutually agreed to terminate his contract reports the Official Notts County Website.

The 6ft 1in Nottingham-born forward signed professional terms with the Magpies after progressing through the Youth System. He made 32 appearances in total for the club.

A loan spell at Tamworth in 2004/05, his first season as a professional, saw him net three goals in three games to push him into the first team, and he followed that up with his first ever goal for the club at Shrewsbury Town towards the end of the campaign.

Graham Turner may have no interest in this particular player but there is little doubt that there will be players like Harrad who will be looking for clubs to further their careers. He is described as a skiful and pacy attacker.
