Bala Town swoop to sign Ruthin Town striker Llyr Morris

Bala have strengthened their attacking department ahead of their upcoming Europa League tie with the addition of Ruthin Town striker Owain Llyr Morris.

The 24-year-old has played the entirety of his career in the Welsh football pyramid with his local side.

He joined Ruthin at the age of 11 and has worked his way towards the first team before becoming their top goalscorer in recent years.

The Lakesiders were looking to add depth up front following the departures of Mike Hayes to Caernarfon Town and Louis Robles to Welsh Premier League rivals TNS.

Their top goalscorer Chris Venables also signed a new contract back in June to keep him at the club for at least another year.

Morris’ first competitive appearance will most likely be in the Europa League for Bala Town should he be given the opportunity, with Bala set to find out their opponents on the 10th of August.

They will then play the first qualifying round either at home which looks likely to be held at the Cardiff City Stadium or away in Europe in a one-legged tie.
