FA VASE final hero Elliott Nevitt is determined to grab his dream EFL chance with Tranmere Rovers with both hands.

The 21-year-old came to prominence when he netted a hat-trick for Warrington Rylands in their thrilling 3-2 Vase final win against Binfield at Wembley in May.

League Two outfit Rovers have now won the race to sign him, handing Nevitt, right, a one-year deal.

“Scoring a hat-trick at Wembley was the best feeling ever – it was crazy,” he said. “I’ve played in Non-League for about five years now. I played for City of Liverpool, played for Warrington Rylands and before that I was in college.

“I’m so happy. I’ve wanted to be a pro all my life so now it’s just about working hard, getting as fit as the boys and doing what I can do.”

New boss Micky Mellon added: “Elliott deserves his opportunity. We have seen his guts, determination and he has trained well since he came in.”
