"He's a great shot stopper, has really good feet and has a really good head on his shoulders for a young lad.

"He's at the stage in his career, where needs first-team football and he will certainly get that at Runcorn.

"I've no doubt he's got a bright future ahead of him and I'm looking forward to working with him."
