Harrogate sign Fox from Northampton

Harrogate Town have signed Ben Fox from Northampton Town on a permanent deal.

The 27-year-old has signed a two-and-a-half year deal and becomes the Sulphurites' sixth signing of a busy winter transfer window.

The versatile midfielder made 12 starts in all competitions for the Cobblers this season but has not featured since the 3-0 defeat by Peterborough United in the EFL Trophy on 17 December.

"The opportunity to come and play regularly for a really good football club is a really exciting challenge," Fox told Harrogate's club website.
