Drury said: “I’m delighted to have signed for Brigg Town for the upcoming season. I have heard fantastic things about its direction and ambitions as well as the passionate following.

"I’m looking forward to meeting my new teammates and working with the new management team and hopefully we can make this season a successful one.”

Joint manager Stephen McCarron added: “I’m thrilled to announce Adam as our first signing as management of Brigg Town.

“Adam is a player with an outstanding non-league pedigree — over 100 goals and multiple promotions to his name. He’s a class act in the final third, always a threat, and brings real versatility across the pitch.

“From our first conversation, he’s been a pleasure to deal with. Straightforward, committed and eager to get going — he’s made my job very easy.

“I’ve no doubt the Brigg Town supporters will love watching him play. He’s a player who excites and we’re lucky to have him on board.”

Among those who have agreed to remain at the club for the upcoming season are defender Lewis Hill, who played every minute of Brigg’s season in 24/25.

Ben Vazquez has also agreed to stay, as has defender James Petronzio, while fans’ favourite Josh Jordan also remains and has been appointed club captain at the age of 22.
