Huddersfield to snap-up Jesse Debrah in transfer from Halifax before loaning 22-year-old defender out next season
HUDDERSFIELD will sign Halifax centre-back Jesse Debrah, 22, then loan him out for the season.
The Londoner started his career at Millwall before dropping into the National League last year.
He failed to ever make a senior appearance for the Lions.
But Huddersfield boss Carlos Corberan is set to offer Debrah a return to the football league.
Debrah played 26 times for Halifax last season in all competitions, helping the club to a fourth-place finish in the National League.
Town were then beaten in the National League play-offs by Chesterfield.

Huddersfield also lost out in the play-offs this season, going down 1-0 to Nottingham Forest at Wembley in the Championship final.
It's not just Halifax defender Debrah who the Terriers are set to snap up from non-league.
SunSport exclusively revealed in the week that Huddersfield were in advanced talks to sign Solihull Moors giant Kyle Hudlin.
The 6ft9 striker - who is the tallest outfield player in the UK - is a target for Corberan.

Hudlin headed Moors in front in the National League play-off final last week only for Grimsby Town to win it 2-1 in extra-time to reach the EFL.
But SunSport understands the forward will not be left disappointed for long as he prepares to jump up THREE divisions by signing for Huddersfield.
