Hanley signs for Hereford


Left-sided player Raheem Hanley has signed for Hereford ahead of tomorrow's opening game of the season following a successful trial prior at the club.
The 25-year-old has played as both a winger and a left-back during his career and was last with Chorley.
"The role that Marc [Richards] has asked me to play suits me down to a tee," Hanley told the club's official website.
“I’ve loved playing at Edgar Street so far, the crowd have got proper involved when I’ve done certain things, they’ve really got behind us and it’s a nice feeling.
“I’m pacey, I like to get forward, like to get crosses into the box and hopefully get a few shots in as well.”
Hereford Head Coach Marc Richards added that the St Kitts & Nevis international comes 'at a good age'.
“The last 12 to 18 months has seen him stall a bit, but we’re hoping that we can give him the platform to really push on," said Richards.
“He’s done well in the two games he’s played. He’s dynamic, quick, strong and has a really good left foot.
“He’ll give us some competition on the left-hand side of the pitch and we’re really excited by his arrival.”
