Buxton Football Club announced the signing of 18-year-old goalkeeper True Grant on a season-long loan from Manchester City. Grant, who previously played in Derby County’s youth ranks, has progressed through City’s Academy system and featured for their Under-18s and Elite Development Squad.
Grant, known for his ball-playing abilities, has earned his first opportunity in senior men’s football with Buxton FC for the upcoming season. Despite being outside of the top-four tiers in English football, Grant’s loan move will provide him with valuable experience and playing time at a competitive level.

Buxton FC highlighted Grant’s achievements with City in their announcement of his loan signing, praising his progress and potential in the game.
