In July 2024, City completed the signing of promising young goalkeeper Zach Jeacock on a two-year deal plus a one-year club option.

The goalkeeper was a free agent who left Birmingham City earlier in 2024, having joined Blues when he was just eight.

Jeacock made four first-team appearances in the Championship for the Midlands side, gaining further first-team experience through loans at Stourbridge Swifts, Gloucester City and Salford City - making four appearances in League Two and the Papa Johns Trophy for the latter.
