Burton Albion Football Club

WELL known to Burton Albion manager Jake Buxton from their time at Derby County, Charles Vernam joined Buxton at the Pirelli Stadium in the summer of 2020 on a two-year deal.

Vernam was coming off the back of a productive season with Grimsby Town, scoring 10 goals, including a superb hat-trick against Colchester United.

That hat-trick was finished off with a stunning solo run from inside his own half and a cool finish from outside the box - a strike which won Mitre Goal of the Season.
