Malcolm Melvin Signs

Malcolm proved to be fierce midfielder for Aston Villa, he produced a string of all-action performances for their youth team, chipping in with four goals in the 2011/2012 season.

He began the previous season with an opening goal in a 4-0 victory over Watford, he also went on to score against Birmingham City as Villa triumphed with another impressive 4-0 win.

Melvin has been capped by Scotland at U17, U18 and U19's.

He's the typical quick, strong and holding type player. He's keen on challenges, which he isn't known for backing down from. He joins on the recommendation of our Chief Scout Matt Alexander, who rates Malcolm highly.

Although he hasn't made his professional début, he could prove to be the type of capture we will need to learn to spot.

It's great to see the positive feedback, we certainly don't have anything to lose by offering him a 6 month contract and we here at Pride of Nottingham would like to wish him every success, wheather it's here at Notts County or away from the club.

Well Done to Notts for making this promising signing, hopefully a sign of more to come.
