Youngster Jesse Nwabueze has signed for National League South side Bath City on a permanent deal after leaving Ipswich Town.
The 21-year-old forward joined the Blues in 2020 following a trial after departing Crystal Palace’s youth setup.
Nwabueze went on to be a regular for the Under-18s and Under-21s sides, but suffered some injury set-backs that hampered his development. He also spent some time on loan at Bury Town and Stowmarket.
He featured for Kieran McKenna’s side in the pre-season friendly against Shakhtar Donetsk in Austria last summer.
The academy player now joins Darren Way’s side, having trained with the Romans over the last few weeks. They currently sit 18th in the sixth tier.
Nwabueze made his debut for them in their 2-1 home win over Chelmsford City on Tuesday evening.
