1874 Northwich are delighted to announce the return of talented, young central midfielder, Eric Byrne.
Eric, now 18, first joined the club during the 2023 pre-season campaign and made 12 competitive appearances. Most memorably scoring the stoppage time winner away to City of Liverpool, before departing the club for tonight’s opponents, Runcorn Linnets.
During his time in Runcorn, Eric joined Lower Breck on dual-registration.
During the 2024 pre-season, Eric joined our former co-manager, Wayne Goodison, at Leek Town and joined Newcastle Town on loan. Whilst at Newcastle, Eric scored against Sutton Coldfield Town in the FA Trophy.
Eric goes straight into the squad for tonight’s trip to Runcorn Linnets.
Welcome back to ’74, Eric!
