Duane Darby, manager of BetVictor Southern League Premier Division Central strugglers Redditch United, has called on some special help in his efforts to pull his team away from the drop zone.
He has signed Ben Stokes!
However, this isn`t Ben Stokes who is the current England cricket hero.
This is a 22-year-old midfielder who has joined the Reds from Southern League Division One Central side St Neots Town.
He had signed for the Saints in late October 2019.
He started out in Tamworth`s youth system before joining league rivals Coalville Town halfway through the 2017/18 season initially with the development squad.
He went on to make a handful of starts for the first team during the last few games before moving to Northern Premier League Division One South East side Carlton Town in October 2018 in search of more regular senior football.
Also signing for Redditch is young forward Stanley Anaebonam.
Formerly with Total Motion Midland League Premier Division side AFC Wulfrunians, the 20-year-old has also been with Vanarama National League side Solihull Moors` academy.
