Arrival | Cameron Painter joins Spartans

Blyth Spartans AFC is pleased to announce the signing of Cameron Painter. 

Painter, a young midfielder from Hartlepool, arrives at Croft Park having spent two years at Grimsby Town in the Football League.

Last season, the 19-year-old was loaned to Northern Premier League South East side Spalding United before the Covid-19 pandemic brought it to a premature end.

He becomes Michael Nelson's 15th signing of the summer as preparations continue for the 2021/22 National League North campaign.

On signing, Painter said: "I'm absolutely delighted to finally get it done.

"It's a big club. I just want to show what I can do, please the fans, win games and maybe push for promotion."

Nelson added: "Cameron is someone who has been training with us for a while now.

"He came in during the suspension of the season and we've had a chance to see him in several training sessions and practice matches.

"He's a central midfielder who can also cover at right back, which will give us options throughout the season.

"He is very competitive, energetic and also comfortable on the ball."
