We are delighted to confirm the signing of centre-back Louis Isherwood.


The 23-year-old has spent the last three seasons at Widnes, including a title win last season before the club’s unfortunate demise.


Isherwood started out at Wigan, where assistant manager Tim Lees coached him in the club’s Under 9s & 10s team before a move to Liverpool, where he was coached by Tim once again in the Under 13s.


He returned to Wigan before a move to Chorley’s youth setup, then progressing into their first-team setup. He had two NPL loan spells at City of Liverpool & Bootle. The latter being under our Head of Recruitment, Brian Richardson.


Upon signing, Louis said: “I’m really proud to be joining a club with such a rich history and a massive fan base. It’s a top-quality group, from the players to the staff. The moment I played with the team, I felt like I fit in straight away. I know I’ve got a lot to offer, and I’ll do everything I can to push the team to a successful season.”


Manager, Dave McNabb added: “Really pleased to get Louis into the club. He’s a centre back who’s got a bit of everything. He’s big, strong, dominant, quick and can play.


“Even though he’s only 23, he has a lot of games under his belt, including 44 appearances last season for Widnes, where he was a key part of their NPL West title-winning side. He knows the league, and I’m sure those experiences will help him fit in straight away.”

Bury Football Club can confirm that the Under-23s team will no longer operate as part of the club’s immediate structure. This decision comes as we embark on a comprehensive revamp of our player development pathway.


This strategic move will allow us to focus our resources on creating a more effective and sustainable model for nurturing young talent, with a clearer route from youth football into the first team. The club remains fully committed to the development of young players and will provide further details on our revised structure in due course.


We would like to offer our sincere thanks to the managers Leon and Sas, all coaches, players and backroom staff, particularly Tina, who have contributed to the U23s setup over the last 2 seasons for their hard work and dedication.
