Basford United unveil latest summer signing

Campbell came through the ranks at Notts County and made three senior appearances for the club, having been a prolific scorer for their U18s side.

Whilst at Meadow Lane, Campbell also enjoyed time on loan at Grantham Town before moving to Lincolnshire permanently following his release from the Magpies in 2020.

He eventually moved to Ilkeston a year later and went on to score over 30 times for the Robins.

Campbell could make his Basford United debut when they face Shepshed Dynamo in their second pre-season friendly on Saturday.

Manager Steve Kittrick said: "Rem is a powerful forward with an eye for goal and we're delighted he's joined ahead of the new season.

"He scored both goals against us last season, including a penalty in our win over Ilkeston, but he was a handful all afternoon that day, even when he was out of his natural position - he was someone who impressed us all afternoon that day.

"He will had strength to our front line, as well as brute force and pace - we're really looking forward to working with him."

Chairman Chris Munroe said: “I’m delighted to have finally got Rem to sign for Basford.

“Having seen him train daily with Notts County during their tenancy at Greenwich Avenue a few years ago, his talent was clear, and we should have signed him then on his surprise release.

“However we've eventually got our man and we, as a club, are happy with the business.”
