Jon Brady has completed another signing in three days by bringing back a former fan favourite on a season-long loan from Salford City. This marks Jon Brady’s third signing in three days.
Callum Morton, 24-year-old will be warmly welcomed back to Northampton by supporters, who remember his remarkable loan spell during the second half of the 2019/20 COVID-shortened campaign. At that time, Morton was on loan from West Brom and played a pivotal role in the Cobblers’ promotion success, scoring eight goals in 12 appearances, including one in the play-off final at Wembley.
His performances for the Cobblers earned him several loan spells in League One with Fleetwood, Peterborough, and Lincoln City. However, he never quite recaptured the same form and departed West Brom in 2022. He then signed with Fleetwood permanently before moving to Salford.
Morton spent the first half of the 2023/24 season on loan at Forest Green Rovers, where he scored six goals in 15 games, before returning to Salford. He is the third signing in as many days, following James Wilson and Nik Tzanev.
