Spireites Sign International Striker
Chesterfield have signed Bermuda international striker, Rai Simons from non-league Ilkeston Town.
The 19-year-old has been on Chesterfield’s radar for some time and manager Paul Cook is delighted to have clinched his signature.
Cook said: “Rai is someone we have tracked for a while. We feel that he will develop as time goes on and have a bright future.”
After agreeing a two-year deal at the Proact, Simons said: “I’m excited because I’ve been looking forward to this moment since moving to England at the age of 15. The set-up sounds brilliant and it is everything I could ask for.”
Simons scored on his full international debut for Bermuda and set up the other goal in a 2-2 draw against Grenada.
