Ex-Wrexham AFC goalkeeper admired by Ryan Reynolds signs for Harriers

The 28-year-old shot-stopper was the longest-serving first-team player at Wrexham at the time of his departure.

He ended his five-and-a-half-year stay at the Racecourse by mutual consent last week.

The Deadpool actor said: "Christian Dibble is a huge reason we're in the position we're in today and more importantly, a huge reason so many people across the globe believe in this club"

"His grit, grace and integrity are second to none. He's had his teammate’s backs every step of the way.

"Whichever team is lucky enough to have him next is not only getting a top-flight player, but a leader on and off the pitch.

"I’ll miss him at the Racecourse."

After signing for the Harriers, the goalkeeper said: “The first day I came in, the lads have been really welcoming to me and we have a good team here.

“It’s about climbing the table, getting as many points as we can until the end of the season and hopefully getting into those play-off positions, which I can really see us doing.”
