Oliver Basey
The 19-year-old was promoted to the Brakes’ first team squad from their under-23s last season and was also registered with the Pitmen’s league rivals Alvechurch.
Sang made his debut for Leamington in the Birmingham Senior Cup against West Bromwich Albion in November 2022, and also featured in the final.
He also spent time on loan at Northern Premier League Division One Midlands outfit Sutton Coldfield Town during the season as part of his development.
Goalkeeper Luke Jackson has been re-called from his loan by League One side Sheffield Wednesday and the Pitmen moved swiftly to bring Oliver Basey back from Championship outfit Birmingham City for the remainder of the season.
The highly rated young keeper was impressive in his previous appearances for the Pitmen when arriving firstly in November 2021 and then again in March 2022.
The 20-year-old started out in the Sunderland youth set-up, and the 6`4” keeper was a regular for the Black Cats in the Under-18 Premier League, before turning professional for the Blues, turning out in the under-21s.
In the 18 months since Basey’s progression has seen him play in both the Premier League 2 and PDL, whilst he was one of three ‘keepers who travelled to Portugal for the first team’s pre-season training camp in July 2022.
He has recently returned to St Andrews following a loan spell with Hednesford’s league rivals Barwell.
Meanwhile, the Pitmen have extended the loans of Ben Kaninda from League One Wycombe Wanderers, Jordan Graham from National League North sde Kettering Town and Lucas Yeomans from league leaders and rivals Tamworth.
