Experienced striker puts pen to paper with Bootle

Owens began his career with Liverpool’s under 18s squad and played within Stoke’s youth setup from 2006 to 2009.

The 33-year-old has a vast amount of experience, having previously appeared for clubs including Accrington Stanley, Southport, Mansfield Town and Barrow.

The proven goalscorer will certainly bolster Ste McNulty’s attack ahead of a busy December schedule.

The club have confirmed that Owens will be available for selection on Saturday when the Bucks face 1874 Northwich in front of the home crowd.
