Heath Adds Another To Alfreton Squad

A third player has joined Alfreton ahead of this afternoon's game at Hereford.

Manager Billy Heath has signed Bolton defender Luke Matheson on loan.

This from Bolton FC:

Defender Luke Matheson is to spend the rest of the season with Alfreton Town after securing a loan move to the National League North side.

Matheson, 22, moves to Alfreton for the chance to play competitive, first-team football following the closure of the EFL transfer window last month.

The right-back has made two appearances for Wanderers in the EFL Trophy this season and a total of seven in cup competitions since initially joining the Whites’ B Team squad in September, 2023.

The former Wolves and Rochdale youngster also spent time out on loan at League of Ireland side Bohemians at the end of last season.

Matheson’s first appearance for Alfreton could come at Hereford United today (Saturday) with the Derbyshire-based Reds making a number of recent signings to aid a possible late push for a play-off.
