AHEAD of a busy run-in, Harriers have agreed a deal to sign former West Bromwich Albion forward Layton Love.
The versatile 21-year-old, who can play across the front three, spent over 12 years in the Baggies system, progressing all the way to earning professional terms and featuring for the first team in their FA Cup tie at Aldershot in early 2025.
A dominant presence at 6ft 4in up front, Leyton was regularly in impressive form in the PL2 ranks at West Brom but has endured a frustrating last couple of seasons owing to long-term injuries – the recovery from which he’s been completing with training sessions as part of the Harriers squad in recent weeks.
He has National League North experience, too, thanks to a loan spell with Brackley Town, and now becomes a Harrier for the remainder of the season as the club strengthens for the final push of the term.
Welcome to Aggborough, Layton!
