ALEX BROWN says stepping up to ambitious King’s Lynn Town is more proof he’s taking the right career path.
The 21-year-old England C international has joined the National League North Linnets from Step 3 Buxton.
Brown spent his youth at Sheffield United and quickly realised he needed to be playing as much competitive men’s football as possible if he is to realise his career as a professional.
He was selected for NonLeague’s Three Lions in 2018 after impressing for Sheffield FC and now the highly-rated left-back has nearly two seasons at Buxton under his belt.
Ian Culverhouse’s high-flying Lynn have swooped and while his debut is firmly on hold because of the coronavirus crisis, he feels ready for his new challenge.
