Palfrey signs new two-year Truro City contract

Billy Palfrey will return to full-time football having been part-time since leaving Plymouth Argyle

Truro City midfielder Billy Palfrey has signed a new contract to stay at the National League South champions.

The 27-year-old has agreed a two-year deal with the club after scoring three times in 39 games during City's promotion-winning campaign.

The Cornish-born former Plymouth Argyle youngster joined the club from Plymouth Parkway in the summer of 2023.

It is his second spell at the Tinners having spent two years with the club when he first left Argyle in 2017.

He is the second player this week to agree a new deal after top scorer Tyler Harvey confirmed new terms at the Truro Community Stadium.

"I couldn't really say no to full-time football when the opportunity presented itself, but it is because of everyone's hard work last season that we are in this position,” he told the club website.

"As someone who has lived in Cornwall all my life, this means so much.

“Cornwall has been waiting for a team to have success like Truro have. The closest professional club is Plymouth Argyle, where I had to start out.

"To be a proud Cornishman and to go professional with Truro is brilliant and although next season is a journey into the unknown, I think we should be confident.

"The club is going in the right direction and with the togetherness we had last year, coupled with our incredible support, there is no reason why we can't have another good year."
