Matlock Town strengthen squad
The latest addition began his career at Sheffield Wednesday where he had a number of years in the Owls Academy as well as representing England at under 15 level. When his contract was about to end at Hillsborough in May 2021 he had a trial at Brentford.
Hall joins the Gladiators from Sheffield FC having also been at Guiseley on a dual registration basis, playing for the Lions in their 1-0 FA Cup 1st Round defeat at AFC Wimbledon earlier this month and making his Guiseley debut at Darlington a week earlier.

Hide AdPhillips says that Hall’s arrival has come at an opportune time with Jamioe Cooke expected to be out for around two weeks with a tweak in his knee.
“With Jamie being out for a couple of weeks it’s worked out well for us. He’s very much like Jamie, he’s got an eye for a goal and has trained well tonight,” he said.
"He’s had a good upbringing at Sheffield Wednesday and our President Dennis (Hobson) tipped us off about him. We’re a little short now in that niber ten area and Luke can fill that void. He’ll be a good acquisition for us.”
Matlock expect to make two more signings before the trip to Morpeth Town on Saturday.
