- Former Sunderland defender arrives at Denbigh

Denbigh Town Football Club are delighted to announce the signing of defender Bobby Beaumont from Flint Town United.

The former Sunderland and Wrexham defender, who made his professional debut in November 2019, signs for Town after making 17 appearances in the JD Cymru Premier this season.

“When Dewi got in touch he explained Denbigh had something exciting going on and I wanted to be a part of it” said Beaumont.

“Since joining the lads have been class with me. I can’t wait to get out there, especially in front of the fans and push the club up to where it should be”.

“Bobby is a real coup for us and brings in some fantastic quality” said manager Dewi Llion.

“He came through the ranks at Wrexham and made his professional debut before moving on to Sunderland, and has since come back and played regularly in the Welsh and English systems.

“He’s 22 but brings a huge wealth of experience to a young group and it’s a great indication of the quality players we want to bring the the club”.

Beaumont came through the ranks at Wrexham whilst also captaining Wales Schools Under-18s before making his debut in the Scottish Challenge Cup against St Mirren in November 2019. He went on to face Rangers at Ibrox before making his third and final appearance against FC Halifax Town in the FA Trophy.

In 2020 he signed a one-year contract with then-EFL League One side Sunderland and trained with the clubs’ Under-23s. He made six appearances in the Premier League 2 (U23s) including in matches against Newcastle United, Crystal Palace, Middlesbrough, Burnley, Fulham and Norwich City.

He departed the Stadium of Light in 2021 and made his first appearances in Wales when signing for Caernarfon Town. He made his debut for the Canaries against Denbigh at Central Park in the Welsh Cup. He scored his first senior goal in a 3-1 away win over Cefn Druids in the Cymru Premier.

After making 24 appearances and scoring once he moved on to Flint Town United in the summer of 2022, making his debut against Colwyn Bay in the Nathaniel MG Cup. He would score his first goal for the Silkmen a month later away at Haverfordwest County in the top flight.

In the summer of 2023 following relegation to the JD Cymru North, he trialed with Vauxhall Motors in the Northern Premier League Division One West, before signing for the Ellesmere Port club in the August. He made his debut in the FA Cup against West Didsbury & Chorlton in the first of 32 appearances for the Motor Men, where he scored twice against Stalybridge Celtic and Widnes.

He re-joined Flint in 2024 and has featured 17 times in the JD Cymru Premier and played 20 times in all competitions this season.

Beaumont now lands at Central Park to bolster Dewi Llion’s side.

Welcome, Bobby!
