Former Magpie Fabian Spiess Joins Boston United

Former Notts County shot-stopper Fabian Spiess has joined Boston United, after the Pilgrims struggled to fulfil the position prior.

The 21-year-old German born player is poised to go straight into Boston’s squad ahead of their trip to Curzon Ashton within the National League North. Spiess enjoyed breaking through the youth system, in place at Notts as a promising teenager, making nine senior first appearances during his time at Meadow Lane.

Before later moving out on loan to Bristol Rovers, then signing permanently Torquay United and later Alfreton Town.

Despite remaining largely on the bench for the Magpies’, after Northern Ireland international Roy Carroll, the 21-year-old caught the attention of Liverpool and spent several weeks training with the Premier League team at the end of last season.

Unfortunately a move to the former European giants wasn’t on the cards and Spiess was let go by then County boss Ricardo Moniz during the summer clear-out.

Spiess’s arrival to the Pilgrims, will see him most likely start against Curzon subject to ratification by the National League and Football Association.
