Clifton joins Corby as Westwood departs
Corby Town have signed James Clifton following his release from Nuneaton Borough.
The Steelmen have moved quickly to fill the void left by the departure of Callum Westwood earlier this week by snapping up the former Brackley Town, Kettering Town and Boston United full-back.
Clifton’s move to Steel Park sees him linking up once again with joint-manager Gary Mulligan and assistant-boss Elliot Sandy with whom he played alongside at both Brackley and Kettering.
The deal comes after Westwood confirmed he had left Corby due to “personal reasons and relocation”.
