Zak Brunt signs for Barnet FC

Barnet FC is delighted to announce the signing of Zak Brunt from Sheffield United for an undisclosed fee.

The 21-year-old attacking midfielder spent last season on loan at National League side Boreham Wood. He made 43 National League appearances for The Wood helping them to secure a play-off spot.

Whilst with Sheffield United, Brunt also had loan spells with Southend United and Notts County.

Brunt made two senior appearances for Sheffield United, both in the League Cup.

Barnet FC Manager Dean Brennan said: “I’m delighted to get Zak over the line!

“He is a young, talented and hungry attacking midfielder. He had a great season on loan at Boreham Wood and brings even more speed and quality to our squad.”

Zak Brunt added: “I spoke to Connor Smith and the gaffer. He told me his plans and how he thought I would fit into the system; I just wanted to get it (the deal) done.”

The deal is subject to the usual regulatory processes.
