Barnet sign midfielder High on free transfer

Scott High made 50 appearances for Huddersfield Town

Barnet have signed midfielder Scott High following his release from Huddersfield Town.

The 24-year-old made 50 appearances for the Terriers but spent much of the past two seasons on loan at Irish club Dundalk and then Halifax Town.

High follows the signings of Emmanuel Osadebe, Oliver Hawkins and Romoney Crichlow ahead of the Bees' return to League Two.

"There was quite a bit of interest from Dean [Brennan, Barnet manager] and the staff here early in the summer," High told the club's website.

"I thought Dean and the staff showed quite lot of love towards me, so it was a no-brainer in the end.

"The league's very tough but the squad that the gaffer's putting together looks really challenging, so hopefully we can do the best we can and push up that table".

Barnet did not state the length of the contract.
