Liam Polworth agrees Motherwell pre-contract as Steelmen snap up Inverness star

Inverness midfielder Liam Polworth has signed a pre-contract with Motherwell.

The 24-year-old will join the Steelmen in the summer having spent his entire career to date with the Caley Jags.

Polworth joined Inverness when he was just eight years old and went on to make 204 appearances.

Having topped the Championship assist charts this season, he now makes the step up to Premiership level having agreed a two-year deal at Fir Park.

Polworth follows Livingston defender Declan Gallagher in being lined up for a move to Lanarkshire next term.

Motherwell boss Stephen Robinson is confident Polworth will boost his side's creative options as he continues to implement a change in style.

He told the club website: “We’re delighted Liam is joining us.

“We hope he will continue his creativity with us, having picked up the most assists in the Championship this season.

“He is a very talented boy and I still feel there are a lot of areas he will improve on with us.

“He will give us another option in the middle of the park and out wide, and arrives with plenty experience in the Scottish top flight.

“We want to get our business done early where possible. That’s bringing people in, as well as offering terms to players who are here.”
