Striker Rory Gaffney has agreed to move to National League newcomers Salford City FC for an undisclosed fee.
The 28-year-old has been with Rovers for two and a half years after signing from Cambridge United after a successful loan spell. Gaffney scored eight times in his first half of season with Rovers, he went on to make over 100 appearances with 39 of those appearances coming from the bench.
Gaffney scored nine times in the 2016- 2017 season but found first team football hard to come by in his last season with The Gas, he scored seven times in his last season with Rovers but most of his appearances were from the bench.
Gaffney joins Salford who is co-owned by former Manchester United players Ryan Giggs, Gary Neville, Phil Neville, Paul Scholes and Nicky Butt since 2014 has signed a three contract with the National League side.
Gaffney was a popular player at the gas and Gasheads will miss singing his song on the terraces, ” Oh Rory Gaffney you are the love of my life, oh Rory Gaffney I’ll let you…”
Good luck Gaffers
