Others had hinted/suggested a Swansea defender which GIMOC then pretty much repeated.

Nick Powell confirming what a few of us thought in an interview with The Athletic.


And it is some story how Powell has chosen Stockport, one of League Two’s upwardly mobile clubs, when he could have made far more money elsewhere and had numerous offers from teams higher up the football ladder.

The background, he explains, is that one of his friends invited him to a Stockport game at Edgeley Park in December 2021. They lost 3-1 to Grimsby Town. But Powell liked what he saw.

“My friend knew the owner (Mark Stott) and said to me, ‘I can get you a conversation with the club, what do you think?’ My first thought, without being rude, was, ‘Hell, no.’ I’d just been player of the season in a Championship team. Stockport were in the Conference (the National League). I said, ‘We’ll see when they get in the Football League’.”

Eighteen months later, Powell is watching on television as Stockport lose a penalty shootout against Carlisle in the League Two play-off final. He has been released by Stoke City, two divisions above, and various offers are on the table.

Saudi Arabia has been mentioned, with all its financial incentives. Five clubs from the Championship have registered an interest. There are others in the U.S. and Australia. Wrexham, newly promoted to League Two, want to make him their poster-boy signing.

“By this stage, I’d been to watch Stockport a few times,” says Powell. “We used to get some food, watch the match. I enjoyed the League Two atmosphere. I met Mark a few times and it just resonated with me, in a strange way.

“It was an eye-opener to see the drop (in salary). I want to make as much money as I can before I retire.

“But there are other factors: location, happiness, family. I had conversations with a few managers, in different leagues, and it was one of those times when you just have a gut feeling about something. My mate messaged me to ask where I was thinking and I said: ‘You know what? I do kinda fancy Stockport.’ It just felt right.”
