|May 29, 2025
TOM Peers and Jack Bainbridge have signed up for Chester's next crack at promotion to the National League.
-
Peers, 29, was the first to commit for the 2025/26 campaign, joining contracted players Harrison Burke, Oskar Rosenblatt, Declan Weeks and Connor Woods.
Peers had a brilliant 2024/25 season and was the Seals' top scorer, scoring 21 goals in all competitions with 19 of these coming in the National League North.
Peers is a Chester FC Academy graduate and returned to the club from Macclesfield back in October 2023, and made his 100th Blues appearance back in February.
The Warrington-based attacker has signed a new one-year deal with an option to extend further.
Peers had this to say after putting pen to paper: “It was the easiest decision I have ever made, I knew at 7pm on Sunday evening [just after the play-off final defeat to Scunthorpe] that I wanted to stay with Chester.
