Zak was Consett’s first signing of summer 2022, joining from Northern League neighbours Whickham, as they embarked on a major rebuilding programme.
A pacy striker with a good physical presence, he agreed terms despite being wanted by several other clubs, including some at higher levels.
Zak has also played for Blyth Town, Ashington, Bishop Auckland, Blyth Spartans and Shildon, and scored 15 goals in 37 appearances for Whickham last season.
He’s not just a goalscorer, however: he also provided 10 assists for the Highwaymen, and he’s another player who’s looking forward to making a name for himself in the Northern Premier League.
