Dylan Mottley-Henry on his future and 'running through brick walls' for the boss
Chester striker has had the best season of his career, and he wants more
At 28, having been in the professional game for 12 years, and having played for 15 different clubs, Dylan Mottley-Henry knows that nothing is a given in football.
Having arrived at Chester in October of 2024, the former Bradford City, Barnsley and Tranmere Rovers man has seen his role change, from being a bit-part wide player, loaned out to FC United of Manchester in the division below in January of 2025, to becoming the Blues’ most potent attacking weapon up front this season, Mottley-Henry has had to adapt.
Training to be an electrician alongside his football, Mottley-Henry is acutely aware that while playing the best football of his career, where he is enjoying the longest run in a first-team, netting 12 goals from 43 National League North games this season, 31 of those from the start, he is a player out of contract in the summer, where a new incumbent of the Deva Stadium managerial hotseat will be making the decisions on who stays and who goes.
