Bala Town have announced the signing of former Wales U19 midfielder Liam Higgins after he left Everton Academy.
Liam Higgins joined the Everton Academy in December 2017 from Mold Alexander FC at the age of just 15. He came to prominence for Everton Under-18s, having a good season in 2020-21 until halted by a serious hamstring injury.
He found it much harder to get regular games for the U21s in subsequent seasons but Everton still gave him 1-year contract extensions in June 2022 and May 2023 despite challenging issues with injuries.
Everton allowed Higgins to remain with the club after his contract expired in June 2024, helping him toward a full recovery before finding another club.
