Newport County AFC are delighted to announce the signing of 23-year-old wing-back Ryan Haynes on a two-year-deal.
Ryan began his career in the West Midlands making his professional breakthrough for Coventry City in the 2012/13 season.
It was in the 2014/15 season when a 19-year-old Haynes cemented his place in the first team, making a total of 31 appearances for The Sky Blues in all competitions.
The attacking left-back went on to enjoy a loan spell at Cambridge United the following season before becoming a regular fixture in the Coventry City side.
In the summer of 2018, the Northamptonshire-born defender made the switch to Shropshire where he made 25 appearances for Shrewsbury Town.
