21-year-old becomes Widnes' latest signing

Widnes Football Club are pleased to announce the signing of defender Joe Herbert.

The 21-year-old becomes Steve Akrigg and Kev Towey's latest addition as the duo continue to add defensive reinforcements ahead of the Christmas period.

Herbert - who most recently has been at Prescot Cables - is a Chester Academy product, where he had been Youth Team captain.

He is a two-time Liverpool Senior Cup winner with Cables, scoring the opening goal against Southport in the 2017 final - the video of which went viral due to the extraordinary scenes that followed.

Herbert is ineligible for tonight's Liverpool Senior Cup tie against City of Liverpool but could make his debut in Saturday's Evo-Stik League contest at Radcliffe.
