FGS client Eoin McKeown signs for Buxton FC

Future Global Sports client Eoin McKeown has completed a move to Buxton FC on a one-year deal.

McKeown, 24, joins the National League North club on a one year deal after moving from Tamworth FC where he scored 21 goals in 46 appearances for the club, winning the Southern Premier League Central league title in 2022/23 season.

McKeown, a powerful agile forward who can play as a central striker or wide forward, joined Tamworth FC in February 2022 when the club were lower mid-table. There the former Colchester United academy graduate helped transform the club’s fortunes, with his combination of pace, directness and goals helping turn the Lambs into title contenders and league winners in his first full season.

At Future Global Sports we are delighted to help complete this deal for Eoin, who had several clubs interested in his signature after an excellent spell at Tamworth FC that has helped re-establish his reputation.

Given Buxton FC’s ambitions we feel this could be a great move for the player and the chance to establish himself at a higher level.

Done deal. Future is McKeown!

Future Global Sports is delighted to announce that Eoin McKeown has appointed us to represent him on an exclusive basis.

McKeown, 23, spent four years at SkyBet League Two side Colchester United following a successful trial as a teenager in 2015. A tall, agile striker, McKeown can run in behind as a number 9 or operate as a target man utilising his strong 6ft 2in frame.

Highlights of striker Eoin McKeown in action

McKeown scored on his debut for Colchester in the FA Trophy against Reading in 2017, and had spells at Wealdstone, Maldon and Tiptree, Welwyn Garden City and Kings Langley before leaving the Us in 2019.

The striker is pursuing his education in sports management at Loughborough University but immediately joins National League South side Braintree Town after signing for Future Global Sports, with a firm desire to show his talents and push on back into the professional game.

“I am delighted to be signing with Future Global Sports,” Eoin commented after putting pen to paper. “I feel it’s the right step for me to get back into professional football having seen the track record of players that have progressed under their guidance.”

At Future Global Sports we believe Eoin has unfinished business and the skillset to achieve more and push up the divisions.

At 23 there is a dearth of top strikers at this level - we feel that with consistent hard work, focus and the right guidance Eoin can be one of them.

Welcome to FGS. Future is McKeown!
