Barnsley FC youngster Charlie Hickingbottom has joined Mickleover on a youth loan. A central midfielder or defender and former Derby County junior, Hickingbottom signed pro at the beginning of last season and made his first team debut in the EFL Cup.
I had watched Charlie play a couple of times and liked what I saw. I think he has a big part to play in our squad looking forward
said Sports boss Gareth Holmes.
I have been playing in junior sides and wanted some experience in senior football. I am local to Mickleover and had seen them play, so it’s a good move for me
Hickingbottom added.
