Hednesford Town are pleased to announce the signing of Riley Cole O’Sullivan from Coventry United.

6ft 2inch Striker O’Sullivan joins the Pitmen having began his career in Mansfield Town’s youth academy before moving to Coventry United last season. His fantastic start to this campaign has seen him bag 15 goals in 15 appearances so far and caught the eye of clubs throughout non league with the Pitmen beating several step 2 and step 3 clubs to his signing.

On the signing of O’Sullivan manager Keenen Meakin-Richards said:

“Its no secret that we have been looking for another striker, Riley had been on our radar as he had for most clubs at our level but with him being on contract at Coventry we didn’t really think there would be much chance of bringing him in this season so to get this signing done is a real statement of intent by the club as well as an exciting player to bring in. He had a lot of interest form clubs even higher than ourselves so we are delighted to bring him in to the club”

O’Sullivan is eligible for the squad for this weekends trip to St Ives.
