Nathan Cannon becomes the latest player to advance along the player pathway into the first team.

He made his first substitute appearance for the first team against Stirling Albion last Saturday and has been awarded a professional contract to continue his development. Nathan, 17, has previously caught the eye to represent the Scottish Schools FA in international competition and has been training with the first team since last season.

The hard work starts now as Nathan will need to work hard to become an Alloa regular. Well done Nathan and welcome to the first team!
