Former Ipswich Town youngster Harley Curtis has joined Paul Cook's Chesterfield after departing Suffolk earlier this summer.
Forward Curtis, 20, had been on trial with the Spireites and impressed enough to seal a one-year deal at the National League outfit.
He was recommended to Cook by Town icon Kieron Dyer, now one of the former Ipswichย manager's coaches in Derbyshire.

Dyer, of course, is a former Town U23 boss and worked with Curtis in Suffolk.
Curtis will be reunited with two fellow former Town players at Chesterfield, with both Armando Dobra and Bailey Clements playing a key role in their run to the National League Play-off Final last season.
They lost on penalties to Notts County.
