Conference Premier side Chester have signed forward Liam Blake on a contract to the end of the season.

The 17-year-old spent time in the academies at Wrexham and Crewe, before joining Chester's youth set-up two years ago.

"Liam has worked extremely hard on his game and deserves this opportunity," said the club's head of youth development Bernard Concannon.

"If he continues working hard, he has great future ahead of him."
