We are delighted to confirm that midfielder Owen Robinson has signed a new contract with Bury Football Club.
The 23-year-old joined The Shakers in May 2025 from Marine has since established himself as an important member of the squad at Gigg Lane.
During his first season with The Shakers, following a pre-season injury, Robinson made 18 league appearances, scoring three goals and providing four assists as Bury secured the Northern Premier League West title.
The Liverpool-born midfielder has carried that form into the 2026/27 season, making 12 appearances across all competitions so far, scoring three goals and registering two assists.
He has already found the net against Ilkeston Town, Wythenshawe and Emley AFC, while also providing assists in the victories over Wythenshawe and Emley.
In total, Robinson has made 30 competitive appearances for The Shakers across the two seasons, scoring six goals and registering six assists.
Manager Anthony Johnson expressed his delight at securing Robinson’s future at Gigg Lane.
“I’m absolutely delighted that Owen has committed his future to the club and put his trust in us for the next couple of years.
“He’s been outstanding so far this season, contributing with goals and assists, but what really sets him apart is his relentless work rate, attitude and desire to improve. He sets the standards we expect from everyone at this football club.
“For us, it’s hugely important that we retain our best young players and build something for the long term. Securing Owen’s future is another important step in that process and gives us the stability to keep moving forward. He’s got a big future ahead of him, and we’re delighted that he sees that future with us.”
Robinson added: “It’s an amazing feeling to extend my deal at the club.
“I’ve loved it every second of being here and I’m looking forward to where the club’s journey is heading on.
“I’m looking forward to where the journey the club’s on and I’d love to be a part of it and I can’t wait to keep the club moving forward and I can’t wait to get going again.”
Prior to joining Bury, Robinson began his career at AFC Fylde before moving to Sunderland. He has also enjoyed loan spells at Warrington Rylands, Lancaster City and Bootle. We look forward to seeing Owen continue his development in a Bury shirt!
