“It’s a pleasure to sign for the club and I’m very excited to get started. I’m happy I’m here now.”
Pemberton said Butterfield is someone who has “massive potential.”
He explained: “He’s quite dynamic, he can run, he’s got pace, he’s got energy and technically he’s good. He’s quite laid-back and not a lot fazes him. I want a certain dynamic to the group and he’ll certainly enhance what we’re trying to achieve.”
