Midfielder makes Leek Town return
Leek Town FC have confirmed the signing of Jack Griffiths, who returns to the club from National League North side Chorley.
The 20-year-old, who has represented England at Under 18 level, made 16 appearances for the Magpies last season.
In a promising young career so far, the versatile player has built his experience with Stoke City and Rochdale.
His previous spell with Josh Brehaut’s side came when he signed on a dual-registration basis in September 2025.
Also joining him in Staffordshire is defender Ben Hockenhull, a former Manchester United academy product, whose move to Leek was confirmed last week.
The Blues missed out on the play-offs by five points last season, finishing eighth with 58 points from 40 games.
