Gateshead Football Club are delighted to confirm the signing of Ryan Wombwell.
The 19-year-old, adept in both defence and midfield, joins the club following an initial trial period on a two-year deal, with the option of a third year.
Wombwell arrives having made 15 appearances for Sunderland U23’s during the 2020/21 season – most recently appearing as a substitute in the Premier League 2 play-off final against Crystal Palace.
Wombwell first appeared for The Black Cats’ U18 setup in March 2019, making 25 appearances across two seasons before progressing to the club’s U23 side.
