Former Ultimate Football Coaching Academy scholar Tyler Walton has signed a two-year contract with Sky Bet League Two side Accrington Stanley.
Walton joined the prestigious UFCA Scholarship Programme following his release from Leeds United Academy.
During the two-year programme, Walton played full-time football whilst studying for Level 3 qualifications.
After a pre-season friendly, Walton was picked up by York City where he signed a professional contract at the National League side.
The 25-year-old has enjoyed spells at Farsley Celtic and most recently Southport FC, which caught the attention of Accrington Stanley who swooped in for Tyler's signature.
We are incredibly proud to have played a part in Tyler's footballing journey, and look forward to watching his career develop in the English Football League.
